Holding
The application has no merits and is dismissed.
Facts
The plaintiff purchased a motor vehicle from the defendant, Philip Mwanza Kanyotu, and the vehicle was subsequently proclaimed in execution of decrees. The plaintiff moved to the High Court to seek declaratory orders that the vehicle belongs to him, but the application was dismissed.
Issues
- Whether the plaintiff's application for restraining order and unconditionally releasing the motor vehicle has merit
- Whether the plaintiff's application should have been made through objection proceedings during the execution process
Reasoning
The proceedings emanate from execution proceedings in the lower court. The correct forum for the release of the motor vehicle was through objection proceedings during the execution process. Any dissatisfaction with the lower court's ruling should come through appeal.
