This is an appeal from the High Court (Land Division) in which
the Appellant sued the Respondents for recovery of Tshs. 225,426,800/= being an
outstanding levy on hard rock and gravel excavated by the 1st
respondent at Bagamoyo District and sold to third parties at high profit. The
High Court (Land Division) heard the matter and went on to dismiss the suit,
hence this appeal. In the course of hearing the appeal a preliminary objection
was raised challenging the jurisdiction of the High Court (Land Division) to
hear matters not vested in it by the law.
