The Supreme Court has dismissed a review application filed by businessman Adolph Tetteh Adjei, who sought to overturn a judgment entered in favour of investigative journalist Anas Aremeyaw Anas in a protracted land dispute, according to myjoyonline.com report.

In a unanimous 7–0 decision delivered on Wednesday, February 11, 2026, the seven-member panel held that the application failed to meet the legal threshold required for the court to review its earlier ruling.

According to the report, the review application was heard on January 27, 2026, by a panel presided over by Justice Gabriel Scott Pwamang. The other members of the panel were Justices Richard Adjei Frimpong, Hafisatu Amaleboba, Yoni Kulendi, Bright Mensah, Janapare Bartels-Kodwo and Ernest Gaewu.

Tetteh Adjei is reported to have asked the apex court to reconsider a November 2025 decision delivered by a five-member panel of the court, which upheld Anas’ claim to a parcel of prime land in Accra. The dispute, which also involves Holy Quaye, has travelled from the High Court to the Court of Appeal and eventually to the Supreme Court.

In its ruling, the court stated that after considering the motion, affidavits in support and in opposition, statements of case filed by counsel and oral submissions by lawyers for both parties, it found no exceptional circumstances to justify a review of the earlier judgment.

The Supreme Court explained that for it to revisit its own decision, an applicant must demonstrate exceptional grounds, such as a fundamental error of law or fact apparent on the face of the record, the discovery of new and compelling evidence that was previously unavailable, or a breach of the rules of natural justice.

Lawyers for Tetteh Adjei presented six grounds which they argued amounted to a miscarriage of justice and a misapplication of the law. However, the court held that those arguments did not satisfy the strict requirements for invoking its review jurisdiction.
