Reinstatement Request to Law Mutual – VOID Gething Decision
致 Law Mutual 的重新审理请求 – Gething 判决无效
Permohonan Penilaian Semula kepada Law Mutual – Keputusan Gething Tidak Sah
SECTION 1 — English (Official Legal Version)
Subject: Reinstatement and Fresh Determination – Effect of Void Gething Decision
Dear Law Mutual,
I refer to my correspondence of 23 February 2026 (Withdrawal Without Prejudice) and 25 January 2026 (Request for Fresh Determination).
At the time of my withdrawal, I acted on what I believed to be the correct effect of Justice Gething’s reasons for decision, which I did not receive until 14 February 2026. Those reasons appeared to confirm that the former statutory compensation pathway under s 197 of the Transfer of Land Act 1893 (WA) had been repealed in 1996 and that the Assurance Fund no longer existed.
I now notify Law Mutual that the Gething decision is voidable and has become void, and therefore cannot extinguish my rights or remove Law Mutual’s jurisdiction.
1. The Gething Decision Is Voidable and Has Become Void
The decision is not appealable under the Vexatious Proceedings Restriction Act 2002 (WA). A decision made without jurisdiction and insulated from appeal is void.
2. Consequence: My Cause of Action Against Landgate Remains Alive
Because the decision is void, my cause of action against Landgate and the Registrar of Titles remains intact.
3. Consequence for Law Mutual
The professional indemnity claim against V. Ozich & Co is not extinguished and must be assessed under the Master Policy.
4. Evidence
Three documents demonstrating the void status of the decision are attached.
5. Effect on Withdrawal
My withdrawal was expressly Without Prejudice and cannot waive rights or bar reinstatement.
I request reinstatement of my claim and a fresh determination.
Yours faithfully,
Nicholas N. Chin
