Abstract

This entry is written in anticipation of the forthcoming appeal against the recent High Court judgment in Mak Saw Ching v Yam Hui Min, Barbara Rebecca [2014] SGHC 212. The appeal shall provide a further opportunity for the Court of Appeal to clarify and refine the law on the presumption of resulting trust after the important decision of Chan Yuen Lan v See Fong Mun [2014] 3 SLR 1048 released earlier this year. However, the High Court judgment is not to be missed as well. The decision highlights interesting issues for the appellate bench’s consideration, and could be the forerunner of a new era for the presumption of resulting trust under Singapore law.
