The applicant's complaints regarding demolition and the creation of an alternative road have already been determined and dismissed in previous appeals. The supplementary order did not alter the original decree but clarified execution in light of obstacles. The court is functus officio and cannot revisit the same issues. The supplementary order is proper and justified.
Source excerpt
The High Court held that the disputed road lay on the plaintiff’s land, but ordered it to remain as an easement subject to compensation assessed by a valuer.
The appellant failed to prove his claims regarding easement and improper evaluation of evidence. The tribunal properly evaluated all evidence, followed procedures for locus in quo, and the appellant is estopped from denying agreement with the site visit report. The respondents' evidence was stronger, and the appeal lacks merit.

The proceedings, judgment, and orders of the District Land and Housing Tribunal were vitiated by gross procedural irregularities, including failure to follow mandatory procedures during the visit to locus in quo, improper change of chairpersons without reasons, commencement of hearing without assessors, and reliance on matters outside the pleadings and evidence. These irregularities occasioned a miscarriage of justice and rendered the proceedings a nullity.
