ANOTHER KAMYA MISCARRIAGE: Man who lost Simbamannyo building over bad loans ‘forgets’ to pay court filing fees in new bid to regain lost property

Desperate Peter Kamya has been put on spot by businessman Sudhir Ruparelia's lawyers for not following procedures when filing his case in which he renews his bid to regain now Gender and Labour House, in Kampala.

Indebted businessman Peter Kamya’s woes are far from over as chances of regaining Simbamanyo House,now renamed Gender and Labour House, are varnishing in thin away, each passing day.

Whereas the ex proprietor of Simbamanyo House recently appealed to court to reverse the foreclosure of Simbamanyo Estates and Afrique Suites Hotel, it has emerged that the Businessman accused of non payment for his honest loans, never paid appropriate legal fees in both the main and the appeal case.

Through Walusimbi & Co. Advocates, Meera Investments, whose majority shareholder is billionaire Sudhir Ruparelia, wrote to the Deputy Registrar of the High Court asking the court to examine allegations that Simbamanyo Estates and proprietor Peter Kamya did not pay appropriate legal fees in a number of court matters surrounding the multi million property row.

If it turns out factual, Mr Kamya will be facing another court loss, which was one of his desperate attempts to hold on to Simbamanyo House and Afrique Suites which were foreclosed on and subsequently sold to Meera Investments Ltd and Luwa Luwa Investments Limited by Equity Bank.

“The plaintiffs (Peter Kamya and Simbamanyo Estates) have continuously filed multiple and incessant suits touching the same subject matter while evading payment of the right Court filing fees,” the letter, dated November 30th and Ref: P/L13/MIL/10/21 reads in part. “We are aware that in both HCCS No. 837 of 2020, which was abated and in the current suit, HCCS No. 464 of 2021, the applicable filing fees was approximately UGX100,000,000/= for each suit, in view of the pleaded value of the subject matter being USD23,000,000. However, the record indicates that in HCCS No. 837 of 2020, the Plaintiffs therein who are also the respondents in the above application purportedly paid UGX 37,000,000/= as the court filing fees whereas not. The endorsement stamp on the plaint is not backed up by the actual payment of the right court filing fees or at all,” the letter further reads.

“In the current suit, HCCS 464/2021, we are also aware that the plaintiffs who are also the Respondents in the application this time paid only a sum of UGX1,000,000 instead of the right filing fees.”

Walusimbi & Co Advocates then went ahead to ask the registrar to bring the matter of filing fees to the attention of trial judge.

“In the premises, we pray that you be pleased to bring this to the attention of the learned Trial Judge so that a verification of these issues touching the payment and or non-payment of the Court fees and presentation of the receipts by the accounts section is done prior to the hearing of this application so as to facilitate the expeditious disposal of the application and for the courts for further action,” the letter further reads.

Court recently ruled that Kamya should pay a total of Shs1.3bn as legal costs to Equity Bank (Shs600m), Meera Investments (Shs400m) and Luwaluwa Investments (Shs300m). But Kamywa rushed to court to ask court to reexamine the matter.

The matter is due for hearing on December 13th for hearing by  Justice Stephen Mubiru.

Earlier on, attempts by Peter Kamya to drag the president into the matter, suffered a miscarriage after the president, following a briefing from the Central Bank and the Attorney General, advised the embattled architect and businessman to let justice take its natural cause.

Recently the troubled former Simbamanyo House owner, was ordered by the High Court, Commercial Division to pay over UGX2.9 billion over a messed up land sale.
