The tribunal erred by issuing orders in execution proceedings that were not based on the pleadings or the original judgment, specifically by addressing alleged trespass by the appellant and ordering demolition of her building, which were extraneous to the execution application. Such orders are set aside as the tribunal's role was limited to executing the original judgment.
