Holding

We allow the notice of motion and deem the respondent's notice of appeal dated 9th November 2022 and filed on 10th November 2022 to have been withdrawn.

Facts

The Employment and Labour Relations Court allowed the applicant's appeal and ordered compensation and benefits totaling Kshs 594,104.72. The respondent filed a notice of appeal but failed to lodge the record of appeal within 60 days.

Issues

  1. Whether the respondent's notice of appeal should be deemed withdrawn
  2. Whether the respondent should be ordered to pay the applicant's costs

Reasoning

The respondent failed to lodge the record of appeal within 60 days, as required by Rule 84(1) of the Court of Appeal Rules, 2022. Consequently, the notice of appeal is deemed withdrawn.

Outcome

The respondent is ordered to pay the applicant's costs of the notice of motion.
