Case Significance
In JEY v JEZ [2026] SGCDT 2, decided on 6 March 2026, Tribunal Judge Francis Zhang of the Community Disputes Resolution Tribunal heard a noise dispute between HDB flat neighbours. The claimant (JEY), residing directly below the respondent (JEZ), alleged that since the last quarter of 2024 the respondent had caused excessive noise — described as sounds resembling pounding with a pestle and mortar, hammering, furniture dragging, heavy stomping, and objects being dropped on the floor. JEY sought an injunction and an apology under section 5 of the Community Disputes Resolution Act 2015, framing the claim as breach of the statutory duty not to cause unreasonable interference with a neighbour's enjoyment of their residence.
