- Judgment debtor proceedings- Enforcement-Examination of debtor's means The Magistrate's Court allowed the judgment creditor’s application for judgment debtor proceedings. After several adjournments, the judgment debtor was examined and found to be earning RM1,500 monthly. The Court rejected attempts to reopen the original judgment, affirming that debtor proceedings are not the proper forum to challenge a valid judgment. An order was made for monthly payments of RM1,000, deemed fair and proportionate in the circumstances. The decision reaffirmed that enforcement proceedings must focus on ability to pay and not revisit the merits of the underlying judgment
