Holding

The application is dismissed with no orders as to costs.

Facts

Moi University filed notices of appeal against a judgment and ruling in ELC No. E51 of 1999, but the notices were struck out due to lack of service. The applicant now seeks an extension of time to file the notices of appeal.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant's application for extension of time to file notices of appeal is meritorious.
  2. Whether the applicant's delay in filing the notices of appeal was due to reasonable reasons and without prejudice to the respondent.

Reasoning

The court finds that the applicant's application is not meritorious and dismisses it. The applicant had ample time to move the court to remedy the defect in its notices of appeal but did not do so.

Outcome

Application dismissed
