Read full summary
###### Case summary
The applicant sought to substitute parties in a cross-appeal and amend the notice of cross-appeal. The Supreme Court allowed replacing Orient Bank with its new name, I&M Bank (Uganda) Ltd, under the Companies Act, 2012. However, it disallowed the substitution of the late Prof. Emmanuel Tumusiime-Mutebile with his estate administrators, reasoning that his actions were taken as Governor of the Central Bank and thus did not create personal liability. Additionally, the Court denied leave to amend the cross-appeal notice. Costs were ordered to abide the outcome of the main appeal.
