“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.”

High Court Grants House of Concrete East Africa Limited a 30-Day Interim Protective Order to Pursue Corporate Rescue and Appoints Allan Luwaga as Provisional Administrator.

The Court held that the Company had satisfied the requirements of Section 141 of the Insolvency Act and Regulation 135 of the Insolvency Regulations, demonstrating genuine insolvency and presenting a credible rescue plan supported by an independent professional assessment.

The Court reaffirmed that provisional administration provides a financially distressed company with breathing space to pursue restructuring and negotiate a settlement with creditors, potentially achieving a better outcome than immediate liquidation.

Mr Allan Luwaga the provisional administrator was tasked with protecting the Company's assets, preserving its business as a going concern, engaging creditors on the proposed arrangement, and collecting debts owed to the Company.

High Court Awards Shoprite Checkers (U) Limited UGX 19,557,320 in Repair Costs and UGX 20,000,000 in General Damages for Breach of Lease Following Fire Outbreak; Holds That Landlords Must Prove Tenant’s Fault to Recover Rent Arrears Attributable to Fire Damage

The Court applied the literal rule of contractual interpretation, emphasising that contractual terms should be given their ordinary meaning, with ambiguity resolved, where necessary, by reference to the factual background and commercial purpose of the agreement with reference to Shariff Osman v Haji Haruna Mulangwa, SCCA No. 38 of 1995; Godfrey Magezi & Anor v Sudhir Ruparelia, SCCA No. 16 of 2001.

Read together with clause 39, clause 24.3 authorised the lessor to undertake repairs to the premises and required the lessee to reimburse the costs upon demand. Having established that the Plaintiff carried out the repairs and presented the relevant quotation (PE3), the Court held the 1st Defendant liable for UGX 19,557,320 in repair costs pursuant to clause 24.3.

The Court held that the written agreement governed the purchase price and that the claim for the alleged outstanding balance was unsupported by the agreement and, in any event, time-barred. Unlike Akol v Doka, the present dispute concerned the interpretation and enforcement of specific lease provisions governing insurance obligations and the recovery of repair costs.

High Court at Kabale Affirms Uganda Land Commission’s Authority to Lease Government Land, Declares Registered Proprietor Lawful Owner and Awards UGX 20 Million in General Damages

The High Court at Kabale held that the Uganda Land Commission (ULC) and District Land Boards administer mutually exclusive categories of land, and that a district local government which could not prove that land was "not owned by any person or authority" had no basis to claim it through a District Land Board.

The Court upheld the title of a lessee holding under ULC, found the tenants who entered under the district's tenancy agreement to be trespassers, dismissed the district's counterclaim, and awarded UGX 20,000,000 in general damages.

The Court commented on the history of ULC, noting that the 1995 Constitution "did not direct automatic transfer of land held by the Uganda Land Commission to the District Land Boards", and that the two bodies share a policy ministry but "manage mutually exclusive land". It concluded that land "must formally be transferred to the District Land Boards, in all other cases to be lawfully dealt with."

Kampala businessman ordered to pay Shs 1.1bn accumulated interest on Shs 330m loans

Court records show that Arvind Patel borrowed Shs 200 million from Prime Finance in November 2013 under an agreement requiring him to repay the principal within four months, together with interest of Shs 29 million.

Patel subsequently repaid most of the loan, leaving an outstanding balance of Shs 37 million. The amount later accumulated to Shs 132 million, which Prime Finance sought to recover through court proceedings.
