Court grants 'last' adjournment for JM application for Hyflux

Singapore

IT'S a last chance for Hyflux to bring a firmer conclusion to one of the current three deals on the table, as Justice Aedit Abdullah on Wednesday agreed to grant adjournment to the judicial management (JM) application. A hearing will be conducted "no earlier than three weeks" from now, the judge said.

But this was after he chastised Hyflux's lawyer Nish Shetty from Clifford Chance Asia for making a lastminute request at the start of Wednesday's hearing for an adjournment.
