</div><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>Plaintiff’s Case<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>By a writ of
summons issued on 5th October 2017, the plaintiff claimed the
following reliefs against the defendant:<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p><p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst" style="margin-top:0cm;margin-right:0cm;

An order of court directed against the
defendant to give vacant possession and for ejectment.<o:p></o:p><p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="margin-top:0cm;margin-right:0cm;

Costs.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>It is the
plaintiff’s case that the defendant agreed to transfer his uncompleted house
together with the land thereon to him at a consideration of GH¢50,000.00. The
plaintiff asserts that he paid the said amount to the defendant and the
defendant duly acknowledged the payment and made a statutory declaration
confirming the transfer of the property to the plaintiff. The plaintiff asserts
that the defendant took an additional amount of GH¢15,000.00 for the
preparation of documents covering the property.&nbsp;
The defendant however failed to hand over the documents covering the
property to the plaintiff and he also failed to give vacant possession to the
plaintiff and this necessitated the plaintiff instituting this action.<o:p></o:p><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>Defendant’s Case<o:p></o:p>
