Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant and first respondent divorced in 2006 with a court order directing sale of their matrimonial property. A caveat was registered in 2004 to prevent disposition pending divorce. The property was eventually sold in 2023 for USD$350,000 but the Registrar of Deeds refused to uplift the caveat without the first respondent's consent.
