TypeLand DisputePostureApplication for extension of time to file notice of appeal and stay of execution of judgmentCoramM.A. Odeny
Holding

The application is dismissed with costs as the applicant has not established that he will suffer any loss if the order is not granted and has used untruthful reasons for not filing the notice of appeal in time.

Facts

The applicant filed an application seeking to extend the time to file a notice of appeal and stay the execution of the judgment delivered on 21st June 2018. The judgment was rescheduled due to the parties' presence in court.

Issues

  1. Whether the judgment was delivered in the absence of the applicant without notice
  2. Whether the applicant is entitled to the orders sought for extension of time within which to file a notice of appeal

Reasoning

The court found that the applicant was notified of the new date for delivery of the judgment and had time to instruct the lawyer to file a notice of appeal within the stipulated time. The application for stay of proceedings was also dismissed.

Outcome

Application dismissed with costs
