The High Court is set to hear PN's application to stay the Registrar of Societies (RoS) suspension order, which could have significant implications for the coalition as the Melaka election approaches. Meanwhile, the Court of Appeal in Putrajaya will be managing an appeal related to the Negri Sembilan crisis, while a defamation-related contempt action and a suit by former executive councillors are also scheduled to be heard.",
