</div>GYAESAYOR,
JA<o:p></o:p>The ruling sought to be
varied is dated 26th January 2016.&nbsp; It
stayed the execution of the judgment dated 14th April 2015 pending appeal.&nbsp; That judgment was delivered by Justice Abdullah
Iddrisu. An application for stay of execution was refused by the judge on 31st
July 2015.&nbsp; The reason being that there
is no executable order made in the judgment.<o:p></o:p>All judgments and
applications have been resolved in favour of the present applicant.&nbsp; The respondents have not appealed against the
judgments delivered by Justice Abodakpi on 30th April 2013 and that delivered
by Justice Ofori Atta on 2nd December 2008.&nbsp;
Even now they cannot appeal in view of the time limits given for appeals
by Rule 9 of C. I. 19.<o:p></o:p>Indeed at page 30 of the
judgment apart from the order for the costs and damages, does not contain any
executable orders.&nbsp; We find no
exceptional circumstances warranting the grant of the stay.<o:p></o:p>The applicant who has been
found to have lawfully acquired the land and gave out portion to third
parties&nbsp; for development are under
sustained pressure to deliver to them&nbsp;
lands they had paid for.&nbsp; In our
view the applicants on the balance of convenience stand to suffer most. Other
orders made by Justice Iddrisu in the judgment only re-echo what the two
previous judgments have already made and which have not been appealed.&nbsp; To us it is unfair that the applicant was
being denied the benefits conferred&nbsp; by
these judgments as well as other judgments. We are in favour of varying the
order of the single judge by setting it aside since we find nothing wrong with
the ruling of the court below refusing the application for stay. We with due
respect set aside the order of the court dated 26th January 2016. For the avoidance
of doubt the order of stay of execution granted by the single justice of this
court, dated 26th January, 2016 is hereby set aside.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; SGD<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
