Catchwords

This is an appeal against the decision of the learned Sessions Court Judge (SCJ) in a fatal accident claim arising from a road traffic accident. The claim was brought under section 7 of the Civil Law Act 1956 on behalf of the dependents of the deceased, Mohd Fairuz bin Mislahon. I find no basis to interfere with the assessment of loss of dependency made by the SCJ. The appeal is therefore dismissed. Costs of RM3,000.00 are awarded to the Defendants, subject to the allocator.
