The judgment of the five-member Supreme Court panel, presided over by Justice Jones Dotse, followed a motion filed by claimants to the land, the East Dadekotopon Development Trust. The Trust was seeking to set aside an earlier judgment by Justice Anthony Abada of the High Court. The latest judgment by the apex court, a private legal practitioner, David Ametefe says, should bring an end to the decades of litigation on the land. Justice Abada traced the genesis of the case before him to the one heard and adjudicated by Justice Ofori Atta and on which he pronounced judgment in 2010. It, therefore, asked the Supreme Court to quash the judgment of Justice Abada dated May 21, 2019.
