Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant and first respondent divorced in 2011 with a court order awarding their matrimonial home to their twin children and requiring the applicant to vacate within six months. Two years later, neither party has complied with the order - the property remains in joint names and the applicant continues to occupy the home, leading to this urgent application regarding eviction.
