The Court of Appeal reaffirmed its jurisdiction to allow non-parties to be added as appellants to an appeal on the ground that they had sufficient “legal interest” in the subject matter of the appeal and to prevent satellite litigation.
The Ruling was delivered by Jones JA on an interlocutory application filed by 12 McHari graduates, who were not parties in the proceedings before the Supreme Court.
The Ruling raises interesting points of law for consideration.
