Holding

The application to strike out and dismiss the Record of Appeal is dismissed with costs.

Facts

The applicant, Air Alfaraj Limited, sought to have the appellants' appeal struck out with costs, arguing that the order appealed against was not an order pursuant to the ruling of the superior court.

Issues

  1. Whether the order appealed against is an order pursuant to the ruling of the superior court.
  2. Whether the order should have taken the form of a preliminary objection being overruled rather than arising out of the hearing of an application under order 39 of the Civil Procedure Rules.

Reasoning

The court deprecates the abuse of the process of the court and dismisses the application, stating that the order was not an order pursuant to the ruling of the superior court but rather arose from the hearing of an application under order 39 of the Civil Procedure Rules.

Outcome

Appeal Proceeds to Hearing

Orders

  • Costs assessed at Shs 20,000/=
