Namale Shamim v Nataliya Nabbimba (Miscellaneous Appeal No. 944 of 2025) [2025] UGHCLD 123 (26 June 2025)
The High Court allowed an appeal against a temporary injunction, finding unresolved name discrepancies meant the respondent had not established locus standi.
Itinot and Another v Irimo and 2 Others (Miscellaneous Application No. 0051 of 2025) [2025] UGHC 472 (16 June 2025)
The court found that the applicants failed to establish a prima facie case warranting the restraining of the burial of the late Alupo Rose at the ancestral home of the late Obwangor Joseph Cuthbert. The evidence showed that Alupo Rose lived with Obwangor Joseph as his wife for many years and continued to reside in the family home after his death, which was not disputed by the applicants. The court held that the determination of burial location should be guided by the wishes of the deceased and relevant family members, not solely by biological or marital relationships. The applicants' claim of…

Nabisere Jane Leticia and Another v Gerald Kasigwa and Commissioner Land Registration (Miscellaneous Application No. 678 of 2023) [2025] UGHCLD 78 (2 June 2025)
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.

KTA Advocates v Colline House Limited (Miscellaneous Application No. 2158 of 2023) [2025] UGCommC 124 (22 May 2025)

Gidudu & Another v Gidudu (Civil Appeal 115 of 2023) [2025] UGHC 252 (5 May 2025)
The appellate court found that the trial magistrate properly exercised her discretion in granting the temporary injunction, having considered all relevant factors: prima facie case, irreparable damage, balance of convenience, and maintenance of the status quo. The court held that a locus visit was unnecessary since the appellant admitted possession and purchase of the suit land, and there was no dispute over boundaries or ownership requiring such a visit. The preliminary objection regarding leave to appeal was overruled, as the law provided an automatic right of appeal in this context. The tr…

Lubulwa v Kanakulya and Others (Miscellaneous Application 59 of 2024) [2025] UGHC 226 (25 April 2025)
The court found that the applicant established a prima facie case with triable issues regarding the ownership and transfer of the suit land, including whether the applicant lawfully purchased the land, whether the subsequent sale and transfer to the 2nd respondent was lawful, and whether the caveat was properly lodged and removed. The court determined that the applicant's action was neither frivolous nor vexatious and raised substantial questions for trial. While the respondents argued that any damage could be compensated by damages, the court emphasized that the purpose of a temporary injunc…

Musaazi v Nakatoligo & Another (Miscellaneous Application 33 of 2025) [2025] UGHCLD 48 (28 March 2025)
The application for stay of execution and temporary injunction was found to be incompetent and prematurely filed. The applicant failed to demonstrate substantial loss beyond ordinary consequences of litigation, as the status quo of land occupation remained unchanged and the applicant would not suffer irreparable harm. The lower court's orders were largely declaratory and thus self-executing, not subject to stay. No execution proceedings or taxation of costs had commenced, rendering the application premature. The balance of convenience favored the respondents, who would suffer greater loss if…
