Holding

The learned judge's ruling on the boundary dispute is upheld, and the appeal is dismissed.

Facts

The appellants and respondent were registered proprietors of land parcels in North Kinangop. A boundary dispute arose, and the respondent filed a suit against the appellants seeking an order to deliver up the disputed portion of the suit property and to re-fix the boundary. The appellants denied trespassing and counterclaimed that the respondent was occupying 2 1⁄2 acres belonging to them.

Issues

  1. Whether there exists a fence on the respondent's parcel of land and if so, whether it should be removed.
  2. Who should pay the costs.

Reasoning

The trial judge's determination on the issues agreed upon by the parties was upheld, and the new facts and issues raised by the appellants after judgment were not considered by the trial court.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed
