PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal has announced that a decision regarding Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s appeal to disqualify two lawyers from Messrs Tommy Thomas from representing former attorney general (AG) Tan Sri Tommy Thomas in the RM1.9mil lawsuit will be made on August 11. This appeal is the latest development in the ongoing legal battle between Najib Razak and Tommy Thomas.
Najib Razak, the former prime minister, is seeking to disqualify the lawyers representing Tommy Thomas, who served as the attorney general during Najib’s tenure. The dispute revolves around a lawsuit filed by Tommy Thomas against Najib Razak, claiming RM1.9mil.
Najib Razak’s legal team argues that the two lawyers from Messrs Tommy Thomas should be disqualified due to a conflict of interest. They argue that the lawyers, being former colleagues of Tommy Thomas, may not be able to provide impartial representation.
The decision of the Court of Appeal will be crucial in determining the course of this lawsuit. If the appeal is successful, it could potentially delay the proceedings and force Tommy Thomas to seek new representation. On the other hand, if the appeal is rejected, the lawsuit will continue with the current legal team representing Tommy Thomas.
This appeal highlights the complex nature of legal battles involving high-profile individuals and the importance of legal representation. Both parties involved are seeking a favorable outcome that aligns with their interests, and the Court of Appeal will play a vital role in delivering justice.
