MURINDA vs. MUKAMUZIMA N’ABANDI [

The claim to annul the long-term lease agreement was not administrative but civil in nature, as the dispute centered on family land and the rights of family members, not on an administrative act. The joinder of the Land Authority did not convert the claim into an administrative one. The appeal was therefore inadmissible, and the lower court's decision was upheld with an increase in the awarded advocate's fees.

MUNYANEZA v. NTAKIRUTINKA N’UNDI

The appeal partially succeeded: evidence submitted after the hearing was not automatically inadmissible; the High Court erred in annulling the sale contract without a specific claim; property acquired during cohabitation must be divided equally based on valuation; Ntakirutinka is entitled to her share and partial damages; Hakuzimana's claims for damages and reimbursement were not properly pleaded and thus denied.
