NEVIS HIGH COURT CANCELS DUPLICATE LAND TITLE, ORDERS GOVERNMENT TO PAY BOTH FAMILIES’ LEGAL COSTS
[]

The disputed 9.375 acres will now be restored exclusively to the Clarke family’s 1989 Certificate of Title.
The conflict was reportedly discovered in 2024, when the Clarke family commissioned a survey connected to development activity in the area.
A subsequent survey confirmed that the entire 9.375-acre Lawrence parcel was located inside the Clarke family’s 75-acre property.
The court ultimately determined that the 2008 title application was fundamentally flawed because the Clarke family, as existing registered owners, had not been personally notified.
The judgment suggested that the Lawrence family could seek legal advice about possible mediation or further proceedings relating to the loss.
