Holding

The Application for stay of execution is rejected

Facts

The Respondent (Star of Hope International Foundation) filed an Application for Stay of Execution on 10 June 2016, supported by an affidavit from its Director. The Claimants (Ignas Karingo Mghona and others) opposed the application, arguing that the Respondent had reneged on its promise to pay the decree.

Issues

  1. Whether the Respondent is in a position to pay the decree
  2. Whether the stay of execution is necessary to prevent the Appeal from being rendered nugatory
  3. Whether the Respondent's NGO status justifies the stay

Reasoning

The Court found that the Respondent had not paid the decree as promised and that the Respondent's financial instability could lead to its closure without meeting its obligations. The Court also noted that the Respondent had not filed a draft Memorandum of Appeal.

Outcome

The Application for stay of execution is rejected
