Judge
Anna B. Mugenyi, J
The court found that PW1 and PW2 were validly appointed directors of the 4th and 5th Plaintiffs at the time the suit was filed, as evidenced by resolutions and filings with URSB. No valid resolution or special notice removing them as directors was produced, nor was there evidence of compliance with section 195 of the Companies Act.

The law does not require a written resolution to commence a suit; agreement by directors is sufficient. Therefore, MMAKS Advocates…

MISCELLANEOUS APPLICATION NO.157 OF 2016
Judge
Luswata, J
The court held that while procedural timelines for filing affidavits are directory and not strictly mandatory, and thus the respondent's late affidavit could be validated, the application itself was fatally defective because the supporting affidavit was sworn by Prof. G. W. Kanyeihamba, who was not shown to be a director or shareholder of the applicant company.
