Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant purchased immovable property from the first respondent in 2012 for US$15,000 and took occupation, but discovered the property was mortgaged. He obtained judgment in HC2566/12 ordering transfer after bond clearance or refund, but execution failed due to respondent's resistance. The applicant now seeks revival of the 2013 judgment after more than three years.
