IRAMIRO CLINIC v KAMBALI

The Court of Appeal found that Iramiro Clinic failed to demonstrate that the High Court relied on a non-existent law as defined by statute and precedent. The mere replacement of the judgment reading record did not constitute reliance on a non-existent law. Therefore, the second appeal was not within the jurisdiction of the Court of Appeal and was dismissed. Legal costs and attorney fees were awarded to Kambali Bigishiro.
