Document Overview

It is the official application form used by a party (other than the cautioner) to request the removal of a caution registered against land. Unlike Form LRA 69, which is used when the cautioner voluntarily withdraws the caution, Form LRA 70 is used when another party seeks removal, often the proprietor or an interested party affected by the caution.

The form records:

1. Title number of the land.
2. Date of application.
3. Date of caution.
4. Details of the applicant and proprietor.
5. Entry number of the caution in the encumbrance section.
6. Grounds for removal of the caution (with supporting documents attached).
7. Execution by the applicant with photo, ID, PIN, and signature.
8. Certificate of Verification under Section 45 of the LRA

The purpose of Form LRA 70 is to:
- Provide a legal process for challenging a caution lodged by another party.
- Enable proprietors or affected parties to seek removal of a caution that is unjustified, expired, or no longer necessary.
- Ensure due process by requiring grounds and supporting evidence before removal.
- Maintain fairness by giving both the cautioner and applicant a chance to present their claims before the Registrar (and, if contested, the court).
- Protect property rights, preventing abuse of cautions as a tool to frustrate or block legitimate land transactions.
