Jurisdictional Issues in Debt Recovery Matters

Abstract

The jurisdiction of debt recovery processes seems clear enough under the Constitution. However, in practice, there is usually some complication and certainty on the matter whenever ancillary orders, third party notices and claims arise from debt recovery. This intellectual sojourn therefore considers cases and legislations on this subject matter. An analysis of the enforcement of court orders nationally and beyond borders is also made and recommendations on the way forward have been proposed for better guidance of Law students, law practitioners and the judiciary.
