: The Court of Appeal today upheld a High Court ruling allowing a retired judge to claim a shortfall in pension payments paid to him between 2015 and 2022.

Justice Ravinthran, who read the broad grounds, said the law has not only entitled a judge to a pension under Article 125 but has also provided for advantages for upward adjustment in the Judges Remuneration Act 2014. Justice Ravinthran said the Court of Appeal is bound by the Federal Court decision in a case brought by Aminah Ahmad and 56 retired civil servants against the government which dealt with similar amending law and a similar constitutional protection in respect of civil servants.

He also said the appellate court is not bound by the Federal Court’s decision in Aminah’s case as Aminah’s case dealt with Article 147 of the Constitution which applies only to public servants.
