</div>&nbsp;BRIGHT MENSAH JA:<o:p></o:p>The instant appeal has been launched against the
judgment of the High Court [Land Division], Accra delivered 22/05/2018 in
favour of the plaintiffs/respondents herein.&nbsp;
Being dissatisfied with the decision, the defendant/appellant herein has
filed an appeal urging this court to overturn the judgment. Per the notice of appeal filed in this court,
the defendant/appellant complains that:<o:p></o:p>1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The learned trial
judge erred by holding that the plaintiffs have capacity to bring their action.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The learned trial
judge erred by failing to make a determination on the triable issue of whether
or not Rosemond Mark Hansen was a head of the Sarah Addo Family.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The learned trial judge
erred by granting the plaintiffs reliefs not sought by them per amended writ of
summons.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The learned trial
judge erred by holding that the plaintiffs’ action was not statute barred.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
The learned trial
judge erred by dismissing the defendant’s counter-claim and ordering a
cancellation of its land certificate No. GA 18620 in Land Register Volume 15
Folio 85.<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;
