    LMYM v. LSW

    Citation
    LMYM v. LSW
    Court
    Court of First Instance
    Case number
    HCMP1534/2007

    Leave to appeal was refused because the Deputy District Judge's orders were properly founded on objective construction of the Deed, supported by evidence (including full disclosure) and a legitimate exercise of judicial discretion; the decree nisi is valid and prior attempts to challenge it failed; the additional administrative and rectification applications were either irrelevant or outside the appellate court's jurisdiction; accordingly both summonses were dismissed and no substantive relief was warranted.
