KAS ESTATE GHANA LTD VS BISMARK ODURO & 4 ORS

In this post-judgment application, the Defendants—acting as Applicants—asked the court to stay execution of the court’s own judgment dated 30 January 2023, pending appeal. His Lordship Emmanuel Amo Yartey (J) recorded that he had critically examined the application, the affidavit in support, the affidavit in opposition, and submissions by counsel for both sides. The court further noted it had considered the grounds of appeal and the judgment complained of as part of its assessment. After reviewing these materials, the judge concluded that the application lacked merit and therefore dismissed it. The ruling leaves the judgment of 30 January 2023 in full force and effect unless and until modified by the appellate court, emphasizing the discretionary nature of stay applications and the need for persuasive merit.
