The Syariah Court of Singapore hears and determines disputes on Muslim marriages, divorces, the ancillary matters thereto and betrothal as prescribed by the Administration of Muslim Law Act. Cases at first instance are heard by the Syariah Court. Appeals from decisions of the Syariah Court are heard by the Appeal Board.

Each appeal is heard by a separately-constituted Appeal Board. Published by the Syariah Court, the Singapore Syariah Appeals Reports is the official report series of grounds of decisions delivered by the Appeal Board. Where no grounds of decision were issued by the Appeal Board, the decision of the Syariah Court would be reported, followed by the Order of the Appeal Board. Where the decision is delivered in Malay, the original Malay version of the Appeal Board or Syariah Court decision is reported together with its English translation.

Each report carries a catchword summary of the case highlighting the main issues decided; commentaries and updates in the form of “Notes” appear at the end of the report, where appropriate. Citations of Quranic verses referred to in a decision are listed in the case report. Volume 9 features the significant cases decided by the Appeal Board and the Syariah Court between 2021 and 2024.

This monograph outlines the evolution and current dispute resolution methods adopted in the State Courts of Singapore. It traces the development from a 1994 pilot project on judicial mediation, to the present establishment of the Court Dispute Resolution Cluster (“CDRC”), which now employs various Court Alternative Dispute Resolution (“ADR”) modalities. This publication concisely sets out the CDRC’s history, mission, legal frameworks and processes. It attempts a deep dive into judgeled dispute resolution, case management, Court ADR modalities, settlement procedures, harnessing technology and the work of the International Judicial Dispute Resolution Network. The aim is to offer readers insights into the CDRC’s initiatives and the benefits of judgeled court dispute resolution.
