Quote of the Month
“The powers granted to the courts of law in the area of judicial review are necessary to place limits and curbs on the exercise of powers by those who are colloquially often referred to as ‘Little Napoleons’.
It therefore behoves us to quote the immortal words of Thomas Fuller, echoed by the equally immortal Lord Denning centuries later, as a reminder to such persons that, ‘be ye never so high, the law is above ye’.” - Collin Sequerah JCA Datuk Bandar Kuala Lumpur v Mohd Suhaily bin Tambi [2024] 4 MLJ 92 |
