Holding

The orders granted on 19:12:17 are extended until 07:03:18

Facts

The plaintiff filed an application for an order restraining the 2nd Defendant from alienating, subdividing, selling, mortgaging, or dealing with the properties. The 1st Defendant transferred the property to himself 3 weeks after a similar order was made in Nairobi.

Issues

  1. Contradiction between the current order and a ruling by the High Court in Nairobi
  2. Alienation of the properties

Reasoning

The court cannot find a contradiction as the ruling in Nairobi is directed to the family and not specifically to the 2nd Defendant, while the current order is directed to the 2nd Defendant to ensure the land is not alienated.

Outcome

The application is granted with the orders extended

Orders

  • Extension of the orders granted on 19:12:17 until 07:03:18
