Holding

Facts

The applicant filed a suit against the respondent seeking a permanent injunction in Kisii HCCC NO. 99 of 2005, and the respondent filed a similar suit in Nairobi HCCC 412 of 2003. The respondent later filed an application to consolidate the two suits, which was allowed. The applicant then filed an appeal against the ruling.

Issues

  2. Whether the applicant has failed to show that the success of the appeal would be rendered nugatory.

Reasoning

The court considered the submissions and held that the appeal is arguable and not frivolous, but the applicant failed to show that the success of the appeal would be rendered nugatory.

Outcome

Application dismissed with costs
