Facts of the Case

Background

The applicants, two foreign companies and one Zimbabwean company, brought an application for summary judgment against the respondents. The application was based on the respondents' alleged failure to deliver 70,500 litres of diesel. However, the court found that the resolutions authorizing the deponent to file the application on behalf of the foreign applicants were not properly authenticated as required by Rule 3 of the High Court (Authentication of Documents) Rules 1971.
