AGC urges court to declare Raymond Ng, Iris Koh vexatious litigants; defence backs their right to sue
The Attorney-General's Chambers in Singapore is seeking to declare Iris Koh and Raymond Ng as vexatious litigants to prevent them from filing further lawsuits. Prosecutors argue the couple is weaponizing the legal system for financial gain through crowdfunding.
Why it matters
This case highlights the legal challenges surrounding the use of crowdfunding to sustain repetitive or 'lawfare' litigation strategies.
The Attorney-General Chambers said the couple was waging "lawfare" and weaponising the civil justice process for collateral purposes, while court-appointed lawyers for the couple said the orders sought would be "unfair".
The report balances the prosecution's claims with the defense's argument regarding the right to sue.
