I do not agree with Mr. Makeera when he says that Rudul was served in Kabale per s onally then in Kampala as a manager of the first defendant in Civil Suit No. 594 of 2002. That explanation cannot be sustained in view of what Nakato stated in paragraph 4 of her affidavit above, where she said that Rudul accepted service in Kampala for h imself and for the first defendant.

In paragr a ph 5 of his affidavit in rejoinder, Mr. Makeera says Rudul came to his chambers at 6.30 p.m. but Ms. Nakato says that the time was actually 3.30 p.m. One of the two must be telling lies, in view of the contents of paragraph 8 of Makeera's affidavit, Ms. N akato might be telling the truth, but not Mr. Makeera. \par }\pard \s26\qj \li0\ri-6\sl360\slmult1\widctlpar\faauto\rin-6\lin0\itap0\pararsid8601802 {\cs48\insrsid8601802 \par }{\cs48\insrsid8601802\charrsid2713232 In view of the above affidavits, I am inclined to agree with Mr. Babigumira that the two affidavits sworn by Mr. Makeera on 6}{\cs48\super\insrsid8601802\charrsid2713232 th}{\cs48\insrsid8601802\charrsid2713232 November 2002 and 20/1/2003 are false. The truth of the matter is that Sil ver Ahimbisibwe did not travel to Kabale on 30/10/2002 to effect service on Rudul Raval in civil Suit No 594 of 2002. The affidavit of Nakato, which I believe is truthful, has effectively established that on that date Rudul was not served in Kabale but in

Kampala which means that the reason why the applicant's counsel did not file his submissions in time is not that stated in his affidavit. It is remarkable that Silver Ahimbisibwe did not swear any affidavit to inform the court as to what exactly happened that prevented him from filing the documents before 31/10/2002; nor was Ahimbisibwe's affidavit of service in Kabaale availed to the court to show what he did in Kabaale. \par }{\insrsid8601802\charrsid2713232 \par }\pard \s26\qj \li0\ri-6\sb235\sl360\slmult1\widctlpar\faauto\rin-6\lin0\itap0\pararsid8601802 {\cs48\insrsid8601802\charrsid2713232 I now turn to the second issue raised by Mr. Babigumira about the validity of the aff idavits. It was counsel's submission that the affidavits sworn by Mr. Makeera were nothing but hearsay and as such they could not be said to have complied with the requirement of rule 42(1) of the rules of this court. On his part, Mr. Makeera argued that his affidavits were not hearsay since he distinguished those facts which were of his own knowledge from those from other source. \par }\pard \s26\qj \li0\ri-6\sl360\slmult1\widctlpar\faauto\rin-6\lin0\itap0\pararsid8601802 {\insrsid8601802\charrsid2713232 \par }\pard \s26\qj \li0\ri-6\sb230\sl360\slmult1\widctlpar\faauto\rin-6\lin0\itap0\pararsid8601802 {\cs48\insrsid8601802\charrsid2713232 It is trite law that a party cannot rely on hearsay to prove his or her case unless that case falls under exceptions to the gen eral rule which govern hearsay evidence. In the present case, the law governing evidence relating to applications brought before this court is to be found in rule 42(1) which Stipulates who can swear affidavits in support of one's case. That rule reads:

In the instant case the person who knew the reasons relating to the delay in filing the submissions is Silver Ahimbisibwe who, for reasons unknown to the court, did not swear any affidavit.

In the absence of Ahimbisibwe's evidence in form of an affidavit or otherwise, what Mr. Makeera stated regarding what Ahimbisibwe did or failed to do is mere hearsay and of no help to the applicant's application. The situation cannot be cured by merely st a ting the source of information, as Mr. Makeera would like the court to believe. The provisions of Order 17 rule 3(1) of Civil Procedure Rules, are not applicable to this application which was filed under rule 42(1) of the rules of this court. In view of t h e fact that the affidavit in support of this application is riddled with falsehood and it is a mere hearsay, I find that the application has not been supported by a valid affidavit as is required by rule 42(1) of the rules of this court.
