10.1.2023 dan 23.2.2023. Mahkamah dapat mengetahui tarikh-tarikh penerimaan oleh peguam JD terdahulu berdasarkan cop penerimaan firma peguam tersebut dalam surat-surat tersebut dan setakat kertas-kertas kausa yang difailkan di Mahkamah, tiada penafian fakta-fakta ini oleh JD. Malah, sebagaimana dinyatakan dalam perenggan 5 surat peguam JD bertarikh 26.7.2023 (Lampiran 7), pembayaran penuh tuntutan RM15,804.10 turut dilaksanakan melalui firma guaman terdahulu tersebut bertarikh 15.7.2023. Undang-undang adalah mantap bahawa sebarang kertas kausa yang disampaikan kepada peguam yang mewakili sesuatu pihak adalah penyampaian yang sempurna ke atas pihak tersebut. Mahkamah dalam hal ini merujuk kepada kes CIMB Bank Berhad v Goh Tai Pak & Anor [2009] 1 LNS 1320; [2009] 11 MLRH 858; [2009] AMEJ 0332 di mana Mahkamah memutuskan bahawa:- “The question is whether the service on the solicitor acting for the 2nd defendant is tantamount to communication to the customer, in this case, the 2nd defendant. I should think so. O. 63 r. 13 of the Rules of the High Court 1980 provides as follows… [20] By rule 13 any document or written communication which ought to be delivered to or served on a party represented by a solicitor shall be delivered to or served on such solicitor. Although rule 13 speaks of a party who had initially sued or appeared in person but is now represented by a solicitor, in my opinion it would not make sense to exclude the application of this rule to those who have right from the beginning been represented by solicitors. In such cases, there is more reason for documents and written communications to be delivered or served on the solicitors acting for the party. In Pengurusan Danaharta Nasional Bhd v. Yong Wan Hoi & Anor (No 2) [2007] 9 CLJ 416; [2008] 7 MLJ 297 it was held that the service of the order for possession and the cause papers for the application on the solicitors acting for the defendants was sufficient in lieu of personal service. Similarly in Syarikat Perumahan Pegawai Kerajaan Sdn Bhd v. Sri Komakmur Sdn Bhd (No 2) [1998] 5 MLJ 756 the service on the solicitors, in lieu of personal service on the directors of the company, of an order of the court requiring the defendant company to specifically perform a contract was held to be proper. Following therefore from the provisions of rule 13 and the authorities referred to I am of the view that any document or written communication that have been communicated to the solicitor acting for the 2nd defendant would be as good as having been communicated to the 2nd defendant. Hence, the contention of the 2nd defendant that P.9 was not communicated to her does not hold water.”
