RULING<o:p></o:p>

</div>The Plaintiff/Applicant filed Writ of Summons
against the Defendant/Respondent on 3rd November, 2009 for the
following reliefs:<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>“(1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A
declaration that the Defendant is not entitled to unilaterally vary the terms
of the Plaintiff’s contract<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>&nbsp; (2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; An order of perpetual injunction to
restrain the Defendant, by themselves, their agents, servants, privies
whatsoever from unilaterally varying or in any way interfering with the
enjoyment by the Plaintiff of the terms of his conditions of service.”<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>He went on to file motion on notice on the same day
for an order to restrain the Defendants from unilaterally varying the terms of
the Plaintiff/Applicant’s contract until final determination of the suit which
the Defendant/Respondent has opposed. This ruling is, therefore, in respect of
the said application.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>According to the Plaintiff/Applicant, at the time
of his retirement in December, 2008, the conditions of service which governed
his appointment, a copy of which is attached to the application as Appendix 1
of Exhibit A, contained the following terms among others:<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>3.4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A
retiring Rector shall be provided with security and one servant if living in
Accra and protocol Courtesies when travelling overseas.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>4.1 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Upon
retirement, the Rector shall be entitled to the following:<o:p></o:p>(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; A
gratuity of 15% of the terminal salary shall be payable for each year of
service in the post of Rector.<o:p></o:p>(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The
official car of the Rector shall be assigned to him if he has used it for four
or more years; but the car may be sold to him if it has been used by him for
two years, discounted at the rate of 25% per annum.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>
