Yaw Vrs Appenteng and Another

Yaw Vrs Appenteng and Another [2011] GHASC 33 (23 November 2011)

Exhibit 'A' was found to be a forged and unregistered document, as the purported lessor was deceased at the time of the oath of proof. Neither party proved valid title to the land on the balance of probabilities, as both failed to meet the evidentiary burden required for a declaration of title. The finding of perjury against PW1 was not supported by the evidence, as he did not sign the oath of proof. The respondent's counter-claim also failed for lack of sufficient proof and failure to call the grantor as a witness.

  • Title to land
  • Forgery
  • Registration of instruments
  • Burden of proof
