Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant, holder of an offer letter for Plot 3 of Amandas Estate since 2013, seeks an interdict against the first respondent who allegedly invaded his farm on 31 July 2022 by sending builders to erect permanent structures, despite a pending spoliation application (HC 3437/22) concerning the same property scheduled for hearing on 7 September 2022.
