description |
In civil procedure, parties are allowed to gather relevant documents before the trial. The
parties may use any of the four methods namely, Discovery and Inspection of Documents,
Interrogatories, Admission and Anton Piller Order. These methods are provided by the Rules of Court
2012 (Malaysia). While in the UK Civil Procedure Rules 1998 methods of gathering documents
include depositions and exchange of witness statements. However, in choosing the most appropriate
method the parties need to consider whether they are able to satisfy the requirements for method to be
used. In discovery process, the plaintiff or the party needs to satisfy the court that the documents to be
discovered are relevant and they are in the possession, custody or power of the opposite party.
Meanwhile the opposite party is expected to comply with the court order for discovery by providing
relevant documents or information. This paper attempts to discuss the process of discovery in Malaysia
and United Kingdom by studying how the process works against the Internet Service Providers (ISPs)
in both countries. The discussion will also include types of documents or information, which are
discoverable and not discoverable from the ISPs and the effect of non compliance with the court order.
For this purpose, the author will refer to the relevant laws, procedures and decided cases available in
both countries. |
