TypeCivil AppealPostureApplication for stay of proceedings pending appealCoramS. GATEMBU KAIRU, J. MOHAMMED, S. ole KANTAI
Holding

The Motion for stay of proceedings is dismissed with no order on costs.

Facts

The appellant/applicant, Yusuf Mbuno, was dissatisfied with the ruling of Odunga, J. in the High Court of Kenya at Nairobi in Petition No. 474 of 2017, where he was ordered to file an appeal.

Issues

  1. Locus standi of the petitioner
  2. Jurisdiction of the trial court

Reasoning

The Court found that the appeal is arguable and a single arguable point is sufficient. However, the applicant did not provide evidence that the appeal would be rendered nugatory without a stay, thus failing the second limb of the application.

Outcome

Dismissed with no order on costs
