Saranelis and Another v. Agnes Nona – sllr 1987 volume 2 page 109

In the case between SARANELIS AND ANOTHER (plaintiffs) and AGNES NONA (defendant), the court addressed whether a judicially notified settlement under Section 408 of the Civil Procedure Code should be set aside due to subsequent undisclosed variations to an agreed right of way, and whether the Court’s inherent powers under Section 839 could be invoked when proceedings have been affected by misleading or incomplete evidence. The findings established that, although settlements must generally be respected, the lack of disclosure regarding the altered right of way, coupled with the absence of a clear identifying plan, constituted sufficient grounds for judicial intervention under inherent powers to secure the ends of justice. The appeal was dismissed and the case remitted for further proceeding
