Banns for Curators

Republic of Malta

To the Marshall of the Court

By means of a decree given by this Court on the 25th June, 2024, following a request by Dr John Bugeja Caruana it was ordered that deputy curators be chosen to represent the unknown direct owner in the records of the schedule of deposit number 1310/2024 in the names Dr John Bugeja Caruana vs Deputy Curators and in the other relative and subsequent acts.

By means of a schedule of deposit and redemption of groundrent number 1310/2024 in the names of Doctor John Bugeja Caruana (ID 368840M) advocate and bachelor, son of he late Alfred Bugeja Caruana and Eileen Bugeja Caruana née Mifsud, born in Ħal Lija on the 27th April, 1940, and residing at 70, Triq Sir Ugo Mifsud, Ħal Lija, vs Deputy Curators to represent the unknown successors in title of Charles Strickland, in their capacity as unknown direct owners of the premises 149 and 150, Triq Santa Luċija, and 20, Triq it-Teżorerija, Valletta, filed in the First Hall of the Civil Court on the 18th June, 2024, the applicant Doctor John Bugeja Caruana respectfully submitted:

That the applicant has the perpetual utile dominium of the urban premises, officially marked with numbers 149 and 150 in Triq Santa Luċija, and 20 in Triq it-Teżorerija, Valletta, subject together to the annual and perpetual groundrent of nine sterling eleven shillings and eight pence (£9.11.8) equivalent to Lm9.58 and today €22.32 originally payable to Charles Strickland, otherwise free and unencumbered, with all their rights and appurtenances as outlined in the attached plan Doc. X;

That the applicant had inherited this perpetual utile dominium from his father Alfred Bugeja Caruana before November 1992;

That originally, the direct owner of these premises was certain Charles Strickland, who as far as the applicant knows is no longer alive and the applicant has no clue of who are, or could be, his successors;

That in order to exempt himself from any responsibility, the applicant wishes to deposit in favour of the unknown direct owner the arrears of groundrent for the last five (5) years, amounting to €111.60, whilst availing himself of the faculty given to him by Article 1501 of the Civil Code and redeem for all intents and purposes of law the same groundrent.

The €22.32 groundrent capitalised at the rate of 5% amounts to €446.40.

Thus, the applicant calls upon this Honourable Court and under its Authority deposit the sum of €111.60 for the settlement of any arrears of groundrent due to the direct owner as regards the premises 149 and 150, Triq Santa Luċija, and 20 Triq it-Teżorerija, Valletta, and the sum of €446.40 price of redemption of the annual and perpetual groundrent burdening the same premises 149 and 150, Triq Santa Luċija, and 20, Triq it-Teżorerija, Valletta, for the settlement of any redemption price of this groundrent and which sum shall be freely given to whom it has the right to it after leaving the duly receipt for settlement.
