The Court of Appeal corrected clerical and typographical errors in an earlier judgment, including the applicant’s name, under Article 140 of Law No. 22/2018.
The Court of Appeal held that the High Commercial Court was justified in correcting the property number in the judgment because the judge had repeated a party's error that was evident from the case file. This exception is recognized in both Rwandan law and Supreme Court precedent. The correction did not constitute a new decision on an unlitigated property but rectified a clerical error that the judge should have noticed. The appeal by MUGENI Josiane was dismissed as unfounded.
Source excerpt
