Facts of the Case
Background
The plaintiff sought to reopen the estate of the late David Manyarara to lodge a claim for unjust enrichment. However, an earlier application to reopen the same estate was already pending appeal before the Supreme Court under SC 522/24. The first defendant raised a special plea of lis pendens, arguing that the present claim should be stayed pending the outcome of the Supreme Court appeal.
