Gregoire’s Company Limited v Payet ((SCA 19/2025) [2025] (Arising in CS 112/2022) (15 December 2025)) [2025] SCCA 36 (15 December 2025)
The appellant failed to prove ownership of the Manager's House and the relevant land parcel, and the respondent had a valid licence to occupy the Manager's House with her father's consent. The acts complained of, except for the August 2022 incident and changing the office lock, did not amount to trespass. Even where trespass was established, the appellant failed to prove actionable damage as required by Article 1382. The trial court's findings on credibility and lack of damage were upheld, and the appeal was dismissed.

Gamatis & Another v Bank of Baroda ((SCA MA 05/2025) - (Arising in SCA 16/2025) And (SCA 16/2025) - (Arising in CM 41/2024) [2025]15 December 2025)) [2025] SCCA 32 (15 December 2025)
The appeal is barred by section 212 of the Immovable Property (Judicial Sales) Act because the appellants did not raise any objection at the time of adjudication. The statutory bar is absolute and precludes appellate review, regardless of subsequent claims of unfairness or new evidence. The documents relied on by the appellants did not constitute a valid objection under the Act, and the application to adduce new evidence fails to meet the legal threshold.

Tankov v Eden Island Village Management Association (MA 78 of 2025 (Arising out of CC 04 of 2025)) [2025] SCSC 123 (9 September 2025)
The Supreme Court dismissed an application for a mandatory interim injunction to compel breakwater repairs at Eden Island, finding damages adequate and the balance of convenience against relief.
Alysé Company (Pty) Ltd v Eden Island Management Association (MA 79 of 2025 (Arising out of CC 05 of 2025)) [2025] SCSC 124 (9 September 2025)
The Applicant failed to satisfy the 'high degree of assurance' test required for a mandatory interim injunction. There is no clear evidence at this stage that the Respondent is contractually obligated to maintain the breakwater as a common area. The balance of convenience does not favour the Applicant, as damages are an adequate remedy and granting the injunction would effectively determine the substantive dispute before trial.
