Holding

The court denied the Plaintiffs' application for temporary injunction.

Facts

The Plaintiffs claim the suit land was fraudulently transferred to the 1st Defendant and then to the 2nd Defendant after the deceased's death. The 1st Defendant presented payment receipts signed by the deceased and explained that the deceased subdivided the land.

Issues

  1. Whether the Plaintiffs are entitled to orders of temporary injunction in respect to the suit land, pending the hearing of the suit.
  2. Whether the Plaintiffs have established a prima facie case to warrant the orders sought.

Reasoning

The court found that the Plaintiffs did not establish a prima facie case to warrant the orders sought and that the fraud and subdivision claims were not proven.

Outcome

Denied
