In Brief
In this civil appeal, the Supreme Court disposed of a long-running property dispute dating back to a 1970 civil suit. The appellant and respondents reached a compromise before the Court with a joint memorandum and a plan prepared by a qualified valuer and engineer. The Court accepted the settlement, partitioning the property into green (appellant) and red (respondent) portions as marked in the plan. The respondents were granted until 31 January 2018 to vacate their occupied portion, with clear warning that non-compliance or breach of the compromise terms would result in civil consequences and contempt liability.
