Holding

The application for stay of execution is granted.

Facts

The applicant, MWENJA NGURE, challenged a judgment dismissing his claim and granting stay of execution to the respondents. The respondents claimed the suit property and were in the process of constructing buildings on their portions.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant stands to suffer substantial loss if the relief of stay is not granted.
  2. Whether the 5th-31st respondents are parties to the application and the intended appeal.

Reasoning

The court found that the applicant has been in possession of the suit property for over 40 years and stands to suffer substantial loss if the relief is not granted. The respondents, who have been denied the use of their land for many years, are also affected.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed.

Orders

  • Stay of execution granted to the respondents pending appeal.
