Nothing much also happened in that earlier case. Eusoff responded with a press conference showing his bills and receipts for the New Zealand trip, and threatening to sue anyone who alleged that someone else had paid for his vacation. He said he had merely bumped into Lingam in New Zealand: "I was going to the zoo and he asked, 'Could I tag along?" Eusoff denied that then new minister in the Prime Minister's Department, Rais Yatim, overseeing legal affairs had prior discussed the New Zealand holiday with him. Eusofee was subsequently investigated and cleared by Malaysia's Anti-Corruption Agency (under PM Mahthir's portfolio). Eusoff was then given a six months' extension at his job. Bar Council took disciplinary action against Lingam based on breach of article 31 of the Legal Profession (Practice and Etiquette) Rules 1978 and that his actions tantamount to misconduct under Legal Profession Act. Lingam appealed to High Court against the disciplinary action on technical grounds that that if the Bar Council was a complainant of his conduct then the president of the Bar Council or his alternate would be disqualified person from sitting as a member of the disciplinary board, and since names of members of the disciplinary Tribunal were not revealed to him, his rights had been violated - a point that the High Court presided by judges Azmel Maamor, Zulkefli Ahmad Makinuddin and Zainun Ali agreed as a basis to allow the appeal in favour of Lingam.

The same reason why a tabloid would welcome a lawsuit from the party or parties who claim they are being defamed. The difference is the tabloid would have the resources to meet the claim for damages. Anwar does not appear to have those. But Anwar knows he is unlikely to be challenged. The rest of us welcome a lawsuit by the CJ for obvious reasons. "...how can LKS be sure that it was Ahmad Fairuz who had spoken to V K Lingam by phone and not an impersonator!" We hope Fairuz would put the matter to rest. “If it is not Fairuz or if there is any doubt, then I believe Anwar would not have named him as he would then be sued.”
