Urgent Appeal for Court Hearing Fees – 24 Aug 2017

-
24 August 2017

Dear Friends,

My lawsuit was heard over 6 full days since 1 Aug 2017.

Yesterday, 23 Aug, was the 6th day of hearing. It is now clear that two extra hearing days are needed to complete the cross-examination/re-examination of the remaining 4 NUS witnesses.

The court has made 29 Aug 2017 available for hearing of the 1st of the two extra hearing days. The date of the 8th hearing day has not been fixed yet. I need to pay $6,000 to "set down" the two extra hearing days.

Separately, I have received the invoice for the first 4 days of transcription of the trial. The cost is $1,742.42. The transcript is a verbatim record of the hearing. I estimate that the remaining 4 days of the transcription will be slightly more because there were two half day hearings which work out to be longer than one full day of hearing.

The transcript of the hearing will be very critical if my lawsuit goes to the Court of Appeal.

I am also asking your help for the shortfall in the previous tranche of court hearing fees (which I still owe someone), as well as other fees.

I am not employed right now because (1) of the demands of litigation (2) I gave up actively looking for a job after luckless attempts and after I found out that potential employers do various kinds of background checks and it is not difficult to find out that I have a lawsuit against NUS. (My contract with my previous employer ended in early 2017.)

The breakdown is here:

Court Hearing Fees
for 2 extra hearing days
$6,000
Transcription fees for 8 days
$3,700
Court Hearing Fees
Shortfall amount of previous appeal of $11,000

$2,400
Filing fees for documents used in court hearing (yet to get the exact tabulation from lawyer)
Several thousands of dollars
(Donations will be appreciated)
Legal fees for the court trial
(Donations will be appreciated)

The urgent appeal amount is $9,700 - please help - will 9,700 people each give $1 and please help to share this meaningful activity with your friends.

Further, your kind support for donations to pay:
  • the outstanding amount for the previous tranche of court hearing fees 
  •  document filing fees for court hearing 
  •  some legal fees to my lawyer whom I have not paid a single cent for the 6 full days of trial. (Those of you who attended my trial would have seen for yourself the amount of preparation that my lawyer would have to undergo before litigating in court.) 

I will be posting my POSB bank and Paypal statements by tomorrow.

Gratefully,
Jeanne

Lee Hsien Loong’s PAP Regime is “Rotting” According to the Reasoning of Heng Swee Keat

-
1 December 2023 What do I mean when I say that Lee Hsien Loong’s PAP regime is “rotting” ? I have been asked what I meant by the word “rot” when I wrote that Lee Hsien Loong’s PAP regime is “rotting.” Lee Hsien Loong’s PAP regime is “rotting” in the sense in which Heng Swee Keat used the words “rotting” and “rot” during a  speech in Parliament on 13 February 2015 , when Heng Swee Keat said that “ the Town Council is rotting. And the rot is serious. … the Workers’ Party has betrayed the people’s trust. The pattern of behaviour; the consistent pattern of denial, deflection and protection of the Managing Agent which suggests a serious rot is happening. ”   Today, Lee Hsien Loong’s PAP regime is clearly “ rotting ” and “ the rot is serious ” and the PAP regime “ has betrayed the people’s trust ” with a “ pattern of behaviour ” that includes a “ consistent pattern of denial, deflection and protection ” by Lee Hsien Loong’s PAP regime and Lee Hsien Loong’s Attorney-General, in favour o

Lily Kong is the Perjurer; Wong Yunn Chii is the Plagiarist

-
13 October 2023 In the aftermath of the news that the NTU faculty member who plagiarised his former student’s work had either been terminated or had resigned , I received some questions about Dr Wong Yunn Chii. There is confusion that these two plagiarists are the same person. The two men are different plagiarists. There is also confusion that Lily Kong committed plagiarism against me; which is also inaccurate. Lily Kong is the perjurer who protected Wong Yunn Chii the plagiarist and this happened in NUS. Lily Kong covered up Wong Yunn Chii’s misconduct after I whistle blew on the plagiarism committed by Wong Yunn Chii. Lily Kong then demanded that the whistleblower (I) agree to stop complaining about the coverup of Wong Yunn Chii’s misconduct, as a condition for NUS to award me my master’s degree. Lily Kong then went to Court to dishonestly testify in Court that she did not link the whistleblowing on Wong Yunn Chii to NUS’s decisions to refuse to award the master’s degree to me and to

A 5-year Legal Battle with NUS

My name is Jeanne Ten. I am a Singaporean. My life has been utterly destroyed by the National University of Singapore (NUS). In 2012, I began a long drawn-out legal battle with NUS regarding the wrongful denial of my MA degree (by Research) in 2006. My trial will begin next month on 1 August 2017. To date, I have already spent more than $100,000 in fees. I have exhausted all my savings. I have no choice but to resort to crowdfunding the legal fees. I hope Singaporeans can extend a hand, no matter how small the amount, to uphold justice. (July 2017) Photo Credit: Grace Baey   18 July 2017 Here’s my encounter I started my MA programme at the National University of Singapore (NUS) in January 2002, and I completed my MA thesis in February 2005. NUS passed my MA thesis in 2006 and even sent me the letter for the commencement ceremony. However, several months later, NUS imposed a new requirement for me to graduate – a written undertaking to accept the university’s decisions rega
