The High Court at Mwanza dismissed an application to inspect tribunal records, finding the challenged status quo order and withdrawal complaint unsupported by the record.
The High Court Land Division allowed the applicant to withdraw a land application at an early stage and made no order as to costs.
The applicant's affidavit is incurably defective for omitting the place where the oath was taken, rendering the application incompetent and warranting striking out; withdrawal at hearing stage is not permitted as it pre-empts the preliminary objection, but leave to refile is granted for interests of justice in labour matters.
Source excerpt
There was no valid consent judgment or decree on record capable of execution; the tribunal lacked jurisdiction to entertain the execution application due to procedural defects in recording the settlement.
Source excerpt
The applicant withdrew the application at the earliest stage, and in the interest of judicial efficiency and fairness, each party should bear their own costs.
Source excerpt
Applicant's right to withdraw the application takes precedence at an early stage, and there is insufficient evidence of significant costs incurred by the respondent to justify an order for costs.
Source excerpt
The application is incompetent due to defective pleadings and improper citation of parties; such an application must be struck out, not withdrawn with leave to refile. Costs are not awarded as the application is not frivolous or vexatious.
Source excerpt
The Tribunal acted within its discretion to award costs to the 2nd respondent upon withdrawal of the application by the applicant. There was no illegality or material error in the Tribunal's order, and the Tribunal was not obliged to provide reasons for awarding costs in these circumstances.
Source excerpt
Since the application was withdrawn before service to the respondent and at an early stage, withdrawal without an order as to costs is appropriate.
Source excerpt
The High Court held that objection proceedings arise only after attachment, so an earlier withdrawn application filed before attachment did not trigger res judicata.
