ECUMENICAL DEVELOPMENT CO-OP SOCIETY UA VRS. WE CARE ORGANIZATION AND OTHERS (CS 887/1998) [2024] GHAHC 163 (21 February 2024)

The second interpleader application is barred by res judicata as the issue of the claimant's interest in the property was previously determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The procedure adopted in the earlier interpleader was proper and the claimant has no interest in the disputed cold store. The present application constitutes an abuse of process.

Civil procedure [2018] GHASC 42

Ghana Commercial Bank Vrs Eastern Alloys Company Ltd and 2 Others

Ghana Commercial Bank Vrs Eastern Alloys Company Ltd and 2 Others [2018] GHASC 42 (4 July 2018)

The appeal fails because the 1st defendant did not timely and properly notify the existence of sufficient movable property, thereby waiving any right to object to the sale of immovable property; the attachment and sale was a procedural irregularity, not an illegality, and the appeal was filed within time as it was against a final decision.

  • Attachment and sale of property
  • Priority of movable over immovable property
  • Timeliness of appeals
  • Waiver of rights

Agyeman Vrs Appiah and Another

Agyeman Vrs Appiah and Another [2004] GHACA 14 (29 October 2004)

The appeal was dismissed because the appellants failed to provide sufficient evidence of joint ownership of the house, and the trial court's findings that the house belonged solely to the judgment debtor were supported by the lease and mortgage documents. The claims regarding the goods and procedural irregularities were either vague or not proper grounds for appeal.
