JUDGMENT<o:p></o:p>

</div><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>ANIN
YEBOAH JSC.<o:p></o:p>On the 13th of November 2014, we allowed
this appeal and reserved our reasons.&nbsp; So
we now proceed to offer our reasons for the allowance of the appeal.<o:p></o:p>This appeal before this court is against the decision
of from the Court of Appeal, Accra, dated the 25/02/2013, which affirmed the
judgment of the trial High Court, Accra. For the sake of brevity, the
Plaintiffs/Appellants/Appellants shall be referred to in these proceedings as
plaintiffs and the Defendants/ Respondents/Respondents as Defendants. The case
of the trial High Court did not go beyond application for directions stage and
therefore the facts appear not to be contentious.<o:p></o:p>On 13/2/2009 the plaintiffs commenced these
proceedings against the defendants claiming several reliefs which should be
stated to enable one to appreciate the basis for this decision:<o:p></o:p>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
An order
directed at the 3rd defendants to expunge from their records the
following indentures in favour of the 1st defendant on grounds of fraud:
- <o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;
An indenture
dated 24th September, 2003 covering an area of 560.36 acres and made
between Numo Nartey Kwaku for and on behalf of Gbenartey Fiesu Family of the
one part and the 1st defendant on the other part.<o:p></o:p>(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;
An indenture
dated 22nd September, 2004 covering an area of 330 acres and made
between the said Numo Nartey Kwaku for and on behalf of the Gbenartey Fiesu
Family of the one part and the 1st defendant of the otherpart.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>
