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.

This is the first contract law casebook which compiles extracts from the judgements of the Singapore courts, as well as excerpts from relevant Singapore statutes. It is designed to facilitate the teaching and learning of Singapore contract law by providing the reader with a systematic framework for understanding the core legal principles underpinning the different doctrinal facets of this subject. Every chapter provides an introductory overview of a key topic, including the formation of contracts, the interpretation of contracts and the discharge of contracts, to assist the reader in navigating a curated collection of case extracts from some of the most significant contract law cases that have emerged from the Singapore High Court and the Singapore Court of Appeal. Users of this book are invited to read the selection of materials critically in light of the accompanying commentary provided in each chapter, reflect on the “grey” areas of the law that have attracted controversy and consider the extent to which Singapore contract law is similar to, or different from, the position taken elsewhere.
