RULING<o:p></o:p>

</div><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p>BY COURT:<o:p></o:p>I have looked at the papers and or
documents put before me in respect of this application.&nbsp; I have not been persuaded enough that the
applicant has a right at law or in equity which this court must protect.&nbsp; This is because the Respondent is in
possession of Land Title Certificate to the land The Respondent whiles
processing their conveyance would have received notice of prior conveyance of
the subject property. This was not the case.&nbsp;
They never encountered any encumberance at the time they registered their
documents in relation to the subject land.&nbsp;
More importantly as a body corporate they have developed the land and
are in possession and occupation of same.&nbsp;
They will suffer greater inconvenience if the application were granted
looking at how the prices of building materials change in this country.<o:p></o:p>On
the other hand, if the action were determined in favour of plaintiffs they will
have the benefit of being compensated in damages or even putting down all the
buildings put up by the applicant at the cost of applicant.&nbsp; <o:p></o:p>In
the circumstance I will refuse the application.<o:p></o:p>Cost
of GHC2,000.00 against the plaintiff/applicant.&nbsp;
Suit to take normal course.<o:p></o:p>
