SIMACO LTD v. I&M BANK RWANDA PLC

SIMACO Ltd lost in both lower courts on the same legal grounds regarding the return of mortgaged properties and denial of damages; thus, its second appeal is not within the jurisdiction of the Court of Appeal. Only four properties not auctioned are to be returned, and costs and advocate fees are awarded to the respondent.
