In Brief
In this case, the Supreme Court disposed of two civil appeals after the parties reached a settlement. The appellants and respondents had negotiated their differences and executed a compromise deed dated 5 October 2016. Upon production of the settlement terms before the Court, the Court allowed the interlocutory application and disposed of the appeals in accordance with the compromise deed. The settlement was incorporated as part of the Court's order. The case illustrates that parties may resolve pending litigation at any stage through mutual settlement, which the Court will enforce.
