JUDGMENT<o:p></o:p>

</div>Introduction<o:p></o:p>This Originating Motion for Preservation of Funds filed
pursuant to Section 39 of the Alternative
Dispute Resolution Act, 2010 (Act 798) could have been disposed
of much earlier, but for a series
of interlocutory matters that this Court had to deal with.<o:p></o:p>The first was a
preliminary objection raised by the Respondents/Respondents (Respondents) to
the jurisdiction of this Court among
other grounds. The second<o:p></o:p>was an Application filed
by the Claimant/ Applicant (Applicant) for
the production of certain Bank Statements
by the Respondents .<o:p></o:p>&nbsp;As is apparent from the
record, these matters occasioned a
number of adjournments which were further compounded by the failure
or refusal of the Respondents to comply with timelines given them for the production of the said Bank Statements.<o:p></o:p>
