NAMANYA v KARANGANWA N’ABANDI
The appeal was allowed because the lower court erred in proceeding to the merits and ruling on the accessory claim after finding that the main claim was inadmissible for being brought against a party who was not the registered owner. Both the principal and accessory claims should have been dismissed outright, and no damages were warranted as no party was wrongfully drawn into litigation.
