Holding
The court dismisses the Notice of Motion dated 28th September, 2015 with no order as the claim is speculative and an order of prohibition is not the most appropriate order to issue without involving other parties.
Facts
The suit land is registered in the names of different parties, including the ex-parte applicant and Lawrence Kadenge Ziro, who is not a party to these proceedings. There are also pending civil suits involving the suit land and other third parties.
Issues
- Whether the court should issue an order of prohibition against the 1st Respondent from allowing any dealings, transactions, and transfer in respect to the suit land.
- Whether the claim that the 1st Respondent may deal with the suit property in favor of third parties is speculative and should not be the basis for an order of prohibition.
Reasoning
The court considers the interests of other parties to the suit property and the existence of pending civil suits, finding that an order of prohibition is not the most appropriate order to issue.
Outcome
Dismissed
Orders
- Order of prohibition against the 1st Respondent from allowing any dealings, transactions, and transfer in respect to the suit land is dismissed
