The written judgment was not provided to any counsel as the judgment pronounced on the 11th day of December, 2009 was ex-tempore. The reason for an ex-tempore judgment w as that the plaintiff urgently needed to know the status as the property was mortgaged and payments were being made under the mortgage with the plaintiff being handicapped from generating any income on the property.}{\f0\fs24\insrsid10975035 \par }{\f0\fs24\insrsid2702081\charrsid10975035 \par }{\f0\fs24\insrsid2702081 7. }{\f0\fs24\insrsid10975035\charrsid10975035 In matters of urgency courts do grant ex-tempore rulings.

I accept Mr. S.
