Singapore’s highest disciplinary body for the legal profession, known as the Court of Three Judges, on April 9, 2024, suspended two lawyers for three years for misleading the country’s top court and for wasting judges’ time, according to Singapore flagship newspaper, The Straits Times.
Chandra Mohan Rethnam, a partner at Big Four Singapore firm Rajah & Tann, and Paul Seah, a partner at local practice Tan Kok Quan Partnership, were the lead lawyers on opposite sides of a case that Singapore’s Court of Appeal heard on January 20, 2021.
