HER LADYSHIP JUSICE ANANDA J. AIKINS

</div>&nbsp;RULING
ON APPLICATION FOR INTERLOCUTORY INJUNCTION<o:p></o:p>This is an application by the plaintiff
for an order of interlocutory injunction against the defendants to restrain
them from dealing with the land, the subject matter of the substantive suit
pending the final determination of the suit. The reason for the plaintiff’s
request is that the defendants have trespassed unto her land. <o:p></o:p>The 1st and 2nd
defendants are opposed to the application and they claim they are the owners of
the land in dispute by virtue of the judgment of the High Court delivered on 29th
June, 2010 in suit no AL3/2006. The 1st and 2nd
defendants say that the plaintiff is estopped from re-litigating suit no
AL3/2006. <o:p></o:p>The Court has perused the motion paper,
the affidavits of the parties including all their exhibits and has also
considered the statements of case and submissions of both counsel and the Court
is of the opinion that there is no merit in this application so same is not granted.
<o:p></o:p>The Court awards cost of GH₵2,000.00 against the
plaintiff/applicant in favour of the 1st and 2nd
defendants/respondents.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;(SGD)<o:p></o:p>JUSTICE
