Bukenya v Bemba (Miscellaneous Application No. 1379 of 2016) [2017] UGHCEBD 25 (13 September 2017)
A bona fide purchaser at a court execution sale acquires good title and is entitled to vacant possession despite collateral challenges.
Execution sales — purchaser’s title — Civil Procedure Act ss.49–50 protect bona fide purchasers; sale under warrant of execution becomes absolute on full payment; court-ordered vacant possession enforceable; magistrates’ compensation orders (MCA s.197) — procedural irregularities noted but do not impeach purchaser’s title; supervisory referral to Chief Registrar where jurisdictional concerns arise.
