DETERMINATION

 







[1] Following the rendering and handing down of the judgment dated 13th August 2010, in appeal No.30/2009, learned advocate for the heirs referred to above, filed a Notice of Motion, supported by an affidavit of a co-executrix dated 14th September 2010. She prays for rectification of a mistake in the judgment, namely, a property registered as T573 is wrongly said to be situated at Anse Marie-Louise.

[2] The case was called on 15th October 2010 and both advocates, B. Georges Esq. and J.

Renaud Esq., were present. J. Renaud Esq., moved for an adjournment for consultation with his clients. The adjournment was granted and the case fixed for 22nd November

2010.

[3] At the sitting of 22nd November 2010, B. Georges Esq. moved according to his Motion and J. Renaud Esq. had no objection to the granting of the Motion.

[4] Further, the Court, propria motu, notes that whereas the marriage was celebrated on 10th June 1878, the date and year are mistakenly stated in paragraph [1] to be "11th December 1924".

[5] Under rule 32(2), SCAR, 2005, the Court has the power to correct mistakes in the judgment. Hence, both mistakes are hereby rectified and paragraph [1] of the judgment now reads:



"Francois and Athenai's Mondon were married in community of property on 10 June 1878. They acquired from one Amedee Mondon a property, namely, parcel T573."



[6] CourtThe two mistakes are genuine and the correctionswill not change the outcome of the appeal in any manner whatsoever. No award is made for costs.
