Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant sought a spoliation order claiming it was unlawfully evicted from mining claim Sandawana AV6 by the Sheriff while executing a court order that authorized eviction from Sandawana AV8. The application was opposed on grounds that the Sheriff executed the writ lawfully at the correct location and that spoliation remedy is not available against court-ordered evictions.
