Holding

The court dismisses the suit and strikes it out with the applicant bearing her own costs.

Facts

The applicant, Omware, initiated a suit under Order 37, Rules 1-20 of the Civil Procedure Rules, seeking an injunction to prevent the respondent, Sensual Luxury Property Ltd, from selling or transferring the suit property until October 30, 2023. However, the respondent entered into a sale agreement with a third party on October 26, 2023, and paid a deposit. The applicant then requested injunctive relief.

Issues

Reasoning

The court finds that the applicant should have moved the court by a plaint and that the suit is barred by Order 37 Rule 8 of the CPR, making it incompetent.

The suit is dismissed and the applicant is ordered to bear her own costs.

Orders

  • The applicant’s suit is hereby struck out with the applicant bearing her own costs.
  • File is hereby effectively marked as closed.
