{UAH} The Mulyagonja Test: (A MUST READ case to every Lawyer)

'In their judgment, the Court of Appeal stated that the trial judge should refrain from being annoyed by the advocate. While I entirely agree with that, the trial judge should be firm like Mulyagonja J was in this case, control court proceedings and deter any daring advocate from abusing judicial proceedings or procedures.' Per Justice C.N.B. Kitumba in Shell (u) Ltd & others vs Muwema & Mugerwa Advocates & Solicitors & anor SCCA No.02 of 2013

its quite an enriching decision, it sets a precedent on champerty agreements in Uganda and instances when court orders may be disobeyed, to mention but a few
