The dispute concerns a parcel of land measuring 9 hectares, originally part of a larger coffee estate owned by A, who executed a settlement deed in favour of her son, P. The settlement deed transferred the property absolutely to P, subject to a condition that he construct a house on the land within two years for the benefit of A’s grandchildren. The deed also provided that in the event the condition was not fulfilled, the property would pass to An, Aโs nephew. P died within six months of the execution of the deed, without completing the construction of the house. Following Pโs death, A unilaterally cancelled the deed and subsequently gifted the land to T, bypassing both Pโs legal heirs and An.
