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

</div>SOWAH, J.A:<o:p></o:p>This is an appeal from the
judgment of the High Court [Fast Track Division] Accra dated 12th
July 2011, which entered judgment in favour of the plaintiff/respondent and
dismissed the counterclaims of the defendants/appellants'.<o:p></o:p>Aggrieved by this
judgment, the defendants/appellants filed separate grounds of appeal. <o:p></o:p>The
1st Defendant/Appellant’s grounds of appeal were as follows:<o:p></o:p>a.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
That
the evidence is against the weight of the evidence.<o:p></o:p>b.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
That
the conclusions reached by the Judge are defiance (sic) of logic and are so unreasonable
or to amount to errors of law.<o:p></o:p>c.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
That
additional grounds of appeal shall be filled upon receipt of the record.<o:p></o:p>
