SSS v JTSV
The High Court of Malaya at Kuala Lumpur heard a divorce case between SSS (husband) and JTSV (wife) regarding the application of amended provisions under the Law Reform (Marriage and Divorce) Act 1976. The wife sought to vary maintenance terms for their child's education under the amended Act, while the husband contested the application. The court dismissed the wife's variation application, ruling that the amended provisions did not apply retrospectively and did not constitute a material change in circumstances.
