AI Summary Beta Machine-generated — may contain errors. Not legal advice.
TypeCivilPostureAppeal from a final orderCoramE.C. CHERONO
Holding

The application to lift the prohibitory order is well-founded and allowed. The plaintiff shall bear the costs of the application.

Facts

The plaintiff lost a previous case and a prohibitory order was lodged on the suit land parcel. The plaintiff appealed the decision but has not yet prepared the record of appeal.

Issues

  1. Whether the prohibitory order should be lifted pending appeal
  2. Whether the plaintiff can use the prohibitory order as a ground for stay pending appeal

Reasoning

The court found that once a determination has been rendered, the decree cannot be enforced without a stay order. Since no stay application was made, the prohibitory order cannot be used as a ground for stay pending appeal.

Outcome

The application is allowed.
