Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant purchased a property from the 2nd respondent but transfer was stalled due to a dispute. The 2nd respondent then purchased another property, which the applicant claimed was bought from proceeds of the first property. The applicant filed an application to interdict the sale of the second property. The 2nd respondent later sold the second property to the 1st respondent, who obtained a default judgment for cession. The applicant then sought an urgent stay of execution.
