Holding

The Motion for stay of execution of the judgment and orders of the trial court is dismissed with costs to the respondent

Facts

Respondent sued the applicant for various remedies in the Employment and Labour Relations Court, where a judgment was entered for Kshs.3,568,210/= on various heads. The applicant filed an application for stay pending appeal, which was granted with conditions. The applicant failed to comply with the conditions.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant has an arguable appeal
  2. Whether the applicant is entitled to a stay of execution of the judgment pending appeal

Reasoning

The applicant failed to comply with the condition of depositing the entire judgment sum in an interest-earning account. The court found that the application is misplaced as there is no arguable point in the appeal and the appeal has been preferred.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed

Orders

  • Motion for stay of execution of the judgment and orders of the trial court dismissed
