Holding

The Notice of Appeal is struck out due to being filed outside the stipulated time period and without leave of the Court

Facts

The respondent filed a Notice of Appeal against a ruling by the High Court of Kenya in Narok, which was in favor of the applicant regarding certiorari orders to quash decisions related to the applicant's business of operating Hot Air Balloons and its activities in Maasai Mara National Park.

Issues

  1. Procedural lapses in filing the Notice of Appeal
  2. Failure to serve a letter bespeaking proceedings

Reasoning

The notice of appeal was filed more than 60 days after the decision and without any application for extension of time. The respondent did not serve a letter bespeaking proceedings, which would have allowed for a possible extension of time.

Outcome

The Notice of Appeal is struck out
