Further to our Circular No. 31/2022, please be informed that Johore Bar Committee (JBC) had conducted an impromptu meeting with PTG Johor this morning (19 July 2022) and was reassured that: –
- Lawyers/law firms are not required to sign the Lampiran B11 form for presentation and it is the “pemilik asal dokumen yang diserahkan kepada wakil peguam” that ought to sign the endorsement in the form – this is in line with our circular 31/2022 dated 8th July 2022;
- Multiple forms may be used for one presentation; and
- All the Lampiran B1 to B10 must be accompanied by Lampiran B11 respectively.
- In the event of any rejection by the counter, please look for the officers-in-charge, namely Puan Nurul Aishah Binti Mohamadon, Encik Hasanuddin Bin Mohamad Hasim or Puan Nur Salwani Binti Mislan immediately.
Following the above, if there are cases where the Johor Land Registry or the Land Offices counters had insisted upon lawyers/law firm to sign the Lampiran B11 form or rejected presentations on grounds that the B11 form was not signed by lawyers/law firm, please provide particulars of such cases and the counter to JBC via https://forms.gle/oA6opqemdXqwSXN29 on or before 5pm, 22 July 2022 (Friday).
In the meanwhile, please be informed that the JBC have amongst others, informed PTG of the difficulties arising from the usage of the B11 form and have urged PTG to suspend the use of the form until further meetings with PTG to address the difficulties. We are following up on this request and members will be informed in due course of any decision on this from PTG.
Thank you.
