Facts

The National Assembly of Kenya filed applications for conservatory orders and/or stay of execution pending the hearing and determination of the appeal from the High Court judgment.

Issues

  2. Grant of conservatory orders in constitutional or public interest matters

Outcome

The applications are dismissed.
