Mugenyi, JSC](/en/judgments/all/?judges=Monica%20K.%20Mugenyi%2C%20JSC) Judgment date 11 July 2024 Language English Summary ###### Flynote * Amendment of cross-appeal – substitution of parties – dismissal of liability for official acts – acts by public officials vs. personal estate liability – corporate name change – rejection of leave to amend notice – costs abide the cause 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. ###### Order __ ##### Ask AI Ask questions and understand this document faster using AI. __Ask AI * * * Skip to document content **Loading PDF...** 100% This document is 2.4 MB.
