EMMANUEL AKWAAH v. PATRICK KPODOH & ANOR

The Circuit Court, presided over by Her Honour Angela Attachie, managed the matter by first standing it down and later recalling it. The plaintiff, identified through counsel as Robert Twene, was absent when the case was recalled, while the first defendant appeared and also represented the second defendant. Counsel included Pascal Attah Fynn for the defendants and Alex Kwame Mensah for the plaintiff. The parties had filed terms of settlement on 11 May 2023, which required the plaintiff to pay sixty thousand Ghana cedis in two installmentsforty thousand upon signing the agreement and twenty thousand upon delivery of possession. The settlement also obligated the plaintiff to vacate or deliver possession on or before 31 May 2023. The court formally adopted these terms as its consent judgment, thereby rendering the agreed obligations binding and concluding the dispute on the basis of the negotiated settlement without reference to statutory authority or precedent.
