Holding

The appeal has no merit and is dismissed with costs to the respondent.

Facts

The appellant, Blue Valley Enterprises Limited, claimed against the respondent, Board of Governors Ruthagati High School, for payment of Kshs. 992,878.80 plus costs and interest. The appellant alleged that the respondent engaged the company to build a dormitory and the contract was for labour provided by the appellant and the District Works Officer determining the payment amount.

Issues

  1. Whether the learned Judge properly examined, evaluated, and analysed the evidence on record to arrive at an independent decision.
  2. Whether the appellant's claim for extra payment based on payment vouchers by the District Works Officer was considered by the learned Judge.

Reasoning

The learned Judge properly considered the evidence and findings from the first appeal, distinguishing the cases and finding the appellant's claim misguided.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed
