Facts

Thomas Makongo Chagoche applied to the Court of Appeal to be allowed to appeal in forma pauperis against a judgment of the High Court. The High Court had found him guilty of criminal charges and refused to issue him with a corrected KCSE result slip.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant has the means to pay the required fees for the appeal.
  2. Whether the appeal has a reasonable possibility of success.

Reasoning

The court found that the applicant failed to demonstrate his financial inability to pay the fees and that the appeal was without merit.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed
