Holding

The application has no merit and is dismissed with costs to the Defendant/Respondent.

Facts

The Kaloleni Land Dispute Tribunal proceedings were held ex parte in the absence of the plaintiff/applicant, who was never summoned. The plaintiff/applicant filed appeals to the Provincial Land Disputes Appeals Tribunal, which were dismissed for various reasons.

Issues

  1. Whether the plaintiff/applicant was ever summoned to attend the Tribunal hearings.
  2. Whether all the proceedings of the Tribunal were heard ex parte in the absence of the plaintiff/applicant.

Reasoning

The plaintiff/applicant appeared before the Tribunal on three occasions, which could not have been by accident and suggests he was summoned. His appeals were dismissed for being filed out of time.

Outcome

Application dismissed with costs to the Defendant/Respondent
