The application for stay of execution was dismissed because the status quo of the suit land had already changed. The 1st respondent was registered as proprietor following a sale agreement and transfer forms signed by the 2nd applicant and Elizabeth Nalukenge. The applicants failed to set aside the orders that led to the registration of the 1st respondent as proprietor. The court found that the application was overtaken by events and that the only way forward was to resolve the main suit on its merits. Each party was ordered to bear their own costs.
