Mr Mukavhi postponed the matter to Thursday to allow the parties to reach a settlement.<\/p>\n
The parties\u2019 lawyers appeared before Mr Mukavhi, sitting in his chambers at the civil courts, to apprise him of the latest development.<\/p>\n
Mr Tsvangirai\u2019s lawyers Advocate Thabani Mpofu and Mr Innocent Chagonda indicated that the decision for an out-of-court-settlement was made in the spirit of professionalism.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe believe we owe it to the profession, court and the generality of Zimbabwe that we settle the matter,\u201d said Adv Mpofu.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have been able to find each other and we believe there is a way to settle this issue that will not involve the court.\u201d<\/p>\n
Adv Mpofu added: \u201cWe have agreed that with the indulgence of the court, this matter will be postponed to allow the process we are carrying out to unfold.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe both (lawyers for the two parties) believe we can settle this matter without the involvement of the court.\u201d <\/p>\n
Mr Everson Samukange of Venturas and Samukange confirmed the latest development saying by October 18, the parties would be able to come back to court with an agreed position.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
