Esparon & Anor (MA 246 of 2024 (Arising in CS 92 of 2024))

Esparon & Anor (MA 246 of 2024 (Arising in CS 92 of 2024)) [2024] SCSC 189 (19 November 2024)

The applicants failed to establish a serious issue to be tried as they cannot claim a right of way by acquisitive prescription, and did not show their property is truly enclosed to justify a right of way under Article 682. The evidence did not support the necessity for an injunction, and the balance of convenience did not favor the applicants. Therefore, the application for interlocutory injunction is dismissed.

  • Interlocutory injunction
  • Right of way
  • Acquisitive prescription
  • Enclosed property

Rosebelle (Pty) Ltd & Anor v Mauritius Commercial Bank (MA 248 of 2024 (Arising in CS 93 of 2024))

Rosebelle (Pty) Ltd & Anor v Mauritius Commercial Bank (MA 248 of 2024 (Arising in CS 93 of 2024)) [2024] SCSC 176 (18 November 2024)

The application for stay of proceedings is premature as there are no ongoing proceedings before a Judge in relation to the commandment. The Immovable Property (Judicial Sales) Act provides sufficient statutory remedies for the Applicants, including the right to object and seek postponement of sale. Therefore, the Supreme Court's equitable jurisdiction under section 6 of the Courts Act is excluded, and the application must be dismissed.

  • Stay of proceedings
  • Judicial sale of immovable property
  • Abus de droit
  • Equitable jurisdiction
  • Loan default

The Appellant contributed 75% and the Respondent 25% to the acquisition and repayment of the property.

Filippo v Huobi Global Limited (MA 320 of 2023) [2023] SCSC 772 (26 October 2023)

There is a serious issue to be tried regarding the alleged fraudulent transfer of the Applicant's cryptocurrency to the Respondent's platform. Damages would be inadequate to compensate the Applicant if the assets are dissipated. The balance of convenience favors the Applicant as the Respondent has control over the assets and could dispose of them, rendering any judgment nugatory.

  • Interim injunction
  • Cryptocurrency fraud
  • Asset preservation
