TypeCivilPostureNotice of Motion for Temporary InjunctionCoramL. GACHERU
Holding

The Plaintiffs' Notice of Motion application is not merited. The application is dismissed entirely with costs to the 4th Defendant.

Facts

The Plaintiffs, a registered society, claim that the 4th Defendant, a legal proprietor, illegally sold their property by public auction without compensation. The 4th Defendant claims the property was originally public land and they have a legitimate title.

Issues

  1. Whether the Plaintiffs have a prima facie case with a probability of success.
  2. Whether the Plaintiffs will suffer irreparable loss that cannot be compensated by an award of damages.
  3. Whether the balance of convenience tilts in favor of the 4th Defendant.

Reasoning

The Court finds the Plaintiffs have failed to establish a prima facie case and that they will suffer irreparable loss that can be compensated by an award of damages. The balance of convenience tilts in favor of the 4th Defendant.

Outcome

Dismissed

Orders

  • The Plaintiffs' Notice of Motion application is dismissed entirely with costs to the 4th Defendant.
