Fazura mempunyai dua buah rumah sewa di Taman Permai, Kuala Lumpur. Beliau telah
menyewakan rumah-rumah tersebut kepada Fattah dan Fahrin. Perjanjian Penyewaan antara Fazura
dan Fattah telah pun ditamatkan ekoran kegagalan Fattah membayar tunggakan sewa. Untuk itu,
Fazura telah memfailkan Writ dan permohonan dibawah Aturan 14 Kaedah-Kaedah Mahkamah 2012
ke Mahkamah Sesyen menuntut tunggakan sewa sebanyak RM50,000 dan suatu perintah untuk
mendapatkan kembali milikan kosong rumah tersebut. Tuntutan Fazura tersebut telah didengar di
Mahkamah dan pada 3.3.2013, Mahkamah telah memberi penghakiman menyebelahi Fazura seperti
yang dituntut.

Dalam pada itu, Perjanjian Penyewaan antara Fazura dan Fahrin telah ditandatangani pada 1.6.2017
dan masih berterusan hari ini (9.3.2018). Malangnya, Fahrin telah gagal untuk menjelaskan sewa
bulanan dari bulan September hingga ke hari ini (9.3.2018) tetapi masih lagi mendiami rumah
tersebut. Fazura belum memulakan sebarang tindakan undang-undang di Mahkamah.

Nasihatkan Fazura mengenai isu-isu berikut:

(1) Bagaimanakah bentuk pelaksanaan penghakiman yang boleh diambil oleh Fazura untuk
menguatkuasakan Penghakiman bertarikh 3.3.2013 terhadap Fattah. (5 markah);
Writ of Possession – must terangkan how it works according to the facts and explain
procedure.
No more chance since tenancy agreement has been terminated.

(2) Apakah langkah yang boleh diambil oleh Fazura untuk mendapatkan jumlah tunggakan sewa
dari Fahrin sedangkan Perjanjian Penyewaan antara mereka masih berterusan. (5 markah);
dan
Only wants rental- distress.

(3) Secara am, terangkan bentuk pelaksanaan yang boleh dibuat untuk menguatkuasakan
‘monetary judgment’. (5 markah)

EXTRA NOTES

Distress- ex parte -to get bayaran tertunggak from tenant , can lelong barang in the rumah as well if
not paid.

To enforce judgment for possession of land : (THIS ONE IS FOR LANDLORD AND TENANT OTHERWISE
USE WRIT OF SEIZURE AND SALE)

 A judgment or order for the delivery of possession of land may be enforced by a

Writ of Possession or in a case where O. 45, r.5 applies by a Committal Order.

ended ). Specific Relief Act Section 7, or landlord can charge double rent for the time
where tenancy has ended but vacant possession has not been given.
 The Writ of Possession in Form 90 commands a sheriff to enter into the land and
take possession of the immovable property.
 A writ of possession for immovable property cannot be issued without a leave of
court except in charge action where Order 83 applies.
 Such leave shall not be granted unless it is shown that every person in actual
possession of the whole or any part of the property has received such notice of the
proceedings as appears to the court sufficient.

or order of court. (O.52)
