Holding

The application is accordingly dismissed with costs.

Facts

The applicant filed a Notice of Motion seeking to vary, set aside or quash a Certificate of Taxation in Kisumu High Court Misc. Application No. 55 of 2019. The motion was dismissed on 19th December, 2019. The applicant sought a stay of execution of the judgment and the Certificate of Taxation pending the determination of an intended appeal.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant's motion to stay execution of the judgment and the Certificate of Taxation is valid.
  2. Whether the respondent is capable of refunding any sums of money paid to her if the intended appeal succeeds.

Reasoning

The court found that there was no order capable of being stayed and that the respondent is capable of refunding any sums of money paid to her. The twin principle set out in Stanley Kangethe Kinyanjui vs. Tony Ketter & 5 others [2013] eKLR has not been satisfied.
