Holding

The court refused the motion and dismissed the application, ordering it to be dismissed.

Facts

The applicant intended to appeal against a part of the judgment of the High Court of Kenya, but did not lodge its record of appeal within sixty days from the date of the notice of appeal. The applicant requested an extension of time for filing the record of appeal and memorandum of appeal.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant should be granted an extension of time for filing the record of appeal and memorandum of appeal.
  2. Whether the applicant's request for an extension of time was valid given the circumstances of the case.

Reasoning

The court found that the applicant did not provide a valid reason for the delay in filing the record of appeal and memorandum of appeal, and that the confusion in the documents submitted by the applicant was due to their failure to obtain the Registrar's certificate of delay.

Outcome

The application for extension of time was denied.

Orders

  • The application for extension of time was dismissed.
  • The applicant was ordered to be dismissed from the motion.
