It is so absurb, i don't know where to start. The place is Singapore. The job was completed as per agreement, the customer did not pay me the outstanding balance. The absurb customer goes on to delay payment (because it will take about a month for hearing) by filing claims at the small claims court against me . On the day of hearing at the small claim court, the customer did not turn up and give reason that he is out of country. The court reject his request to adjourn the hearing, the case was dismissed. since its free of charge for him to file another claims, he may refile again when he tries to delay payment or if he finds the $ (then maybe he might turn up at court to pay me) He is buying time. It will waste my time again to attend to the court. Furthermore, the customer becomes uncontactable for payment. Any laws against this customer for abusing the legal channel or for filing false claims? How to prove he is abusing the legal channel and filing false claim

I don't know the law in Singapore, but couldn't you file suit against him? He owes you money. What is he suing you for, you did the work, right? Or is he just lying.
Save all your papers and bring them to court next time. That shows that he is repeating this. I don't think courts like people who waste their time.
Maybe you could file harassment charges if he repeats this. A lawyer would know. It is best to get a lawyer recommended by a trusted freind. Even if that isn't his type of work, he knows the other lawyers. A good lawyer will not send you to a bad lawyer, I think. If he is honest, he won't want to lose his good reputation.
Ask the police, maybe he is a criminal and has done this to other people. The bad people know all the best tricks to use.
Good Luck.

i do no longer think of mum and dad are to blame for his or her baby's college education. I worked with the aid of college and took out loans to pay for my college and additionally you do the same. Suing your individual kinfolk can't be good for destiny family.
