Akello & Others v Egole & 7 Others (Miscellaneous Application 105 of 2024) [2025] UGHC 12 (17 January 2025)
The court held that the omission of the Attorney General, a party to the consent order sought to be reviewed and set aside, was fatal to the application. Proceeding in the absence of the Attorney General would violate the right to a fair hearing as protected by the Constitution. Even if the application were considered on its merits, the applicant failed to demonstrate that she or her colleagues were aggrieved by the consent order, as there was no evidence that the addition of the respondents as plaintiffs deprived them of their entitlements under the decree. The applicant also failed to prove…

Uganda Registration Services Bureau and Another v MSS Xsabo Power Limited (Miscellaneous Application No. 43 of 2024) [2024] UGHC 1286 (15 July 2024)

Rwegumisa & Another v Mulindwa (Miscellaneous Appeal 6 of 2024) [2024] UGHCLD 122 (24 May 2024)
The court found that the application, though titled as a 'Miscellaneous Appeal', was in substance an application for review and setting aside of a ruling, and was therefore properly before the court. However, the applicants failed to clearly specify or substantiate any of the statutory grounds for review under Section 82 of the Civil Procedure Act and Order 46 of the Civil Procedure Rules. There was no discovery of new evidence, no error apparent on the face of the record, and the reason advanced—that their reply and submissions were not considered—did not amount to sufficient cause, as the c…
