Facts of the Case
Background
The applicants sought an urgent order to stay execution of a writ of ejectment issued pursuant to a default judgment obtained by the first respondent in August 2023.

The dispute relates to a mining area where the applicants claim rights while the first respondent seeks to evict them.
