Hi,can i know the Sunrise Sdn Bhd v First Profile the doctrine of separate legal
entity and the extent of application in Malaysian company law.
Can give me some idea?
Hi Janeline,
Im not entirely sure what you mean by your question but Im assuming you would like to understand what is meant by the concept that a company is regarded as a separate legal entity. This concept was essentially clarified in the case of Salomon v Salomon so that would be where I suggest you look first. To that end I would highly recommend you watch the recorded lecture on this topic as I am confident this will further clarify the concept.
If after watching the recording you have a specific question regarding this topic, please do not hesitate to ask 🙂
Kind regards,
Vijay
I can’t find the lecture notes of Salomon can i know under which chapter of company law?
Can i have the full notes of explanation about this topic n Salomon case?
Hi Janeline,
Chapter 10 deals with the concept of the Company being a separate legal entity. The recording on this topic is entitled Trading Certificates and Lifting the veil and at about 7 minutes into the recording. You will see our tutor talking through what is meant by Separate Legal Entity and refer to Salomon v Salomon. Please note that for the exam you are not required to know the facts of cases.
I hope that helps?
Kind regards,
Vijay
