This
is the ruling in respect of Motion on Notice for Stay of Execution pending
Appeal filed on 2nd September 2016 for an order to stay
the execution of a judgment delivered by this Court on 10th June 2016. The grounds canvassed
for the judgment to be stayed are two. They are contained in paragraphs 8 and 9
of the affidavit in support as follows:<o:p></o:p>

“8.
That I state that the Appeal has a good chance of success and if the judgment
is not stayed the plaintiff…would take steps that would injure the interest of the 1st defendant/appellant/applicant which cannot be adequately
compensated for if the appeal is successful<o:p></o:p>

That I am also advised and verily believe
same to be true that the plaintiff…may also create a third party rights in the
land which may complicate the recovery
of the land in dispute
should the appellants succeed in the appeal”<o:p></o:p>

The
Plaintiff/Judgment/creditor/Respondent opposed the application and his grounds
are contained in paragraphs 5 to 11 as follows:<o:p></o:p>

&nbsp;

“5.
I am advised and I verily believe same to be true that the instant application
by the Applicants does not raise any serious question(s) of law to invest this
Court with power to grant a stay of execution.<o:p></o:p>
