Court
HC: Land Division (Uganda)
Case number
Miscellaneous Application 775 of 2024
Judge
Naluzze Aisha Batala, J
The court found that the consent judgement in Civil Suit No.796 of 2007 was entered into without the involvement and authority of all co-administrators of the estate of the late Kimbugwe Erieza, specifically excluding the 1st applicant. Under Section 272 of the Succession Act and relevant case law, all co-administrators must act jointly in transactions affecting the estate. The absence of joint action renders the consent judgement void. The court further held that parties to a suit must all be involved in any consent settlement, and exclusion of any party vitiates the consent. The applicants…

Kamada v Nakandi & Anor (Misc. Application No. 0775 of 2017) [2017] UGHCLD 364 (9 November 2017)
Court
HC: Land Division (Uganda)
Case number
Misc. Application No. 0775 of 2017
Judge
Kawesa, J
The court found that the Registrar lacked jurisdiction to review or enter the consent judgment in a matter that was actively before a Judge and subject to an injunction. The applicant, Kamada Bukenya, was not a party to the consent judgment but only a witness in the main suit and had already filed a separate suit on the same subject matter, thus lacking locus standi as an aggrieved party for purposes of review or joinder. The consent judgment was entered in error, without the presence of counsel for all parties, and in circumstances amounting to irregularity, misapprehension, and possible col…
