TypeAppealPostureAppellant's Application for Injunction and Stay of ProceedingsCoramM. A. Odeny
Holding

The application for injunction and stay of proceedings is dismissed with no orders as to costs.

Facts

The appellant filed a suit against the respondent, seeking an injunction and a stay of proceedings in Kapsabet Senior Principal Magistrates Court E & L No. 97 of 2018. The respondent did not file a reply to the application.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant is entitled to an order of injunction.
  2. Whether the court should stay proceedings in Kapsabet Senior Principal Magistrates Court E & L No. 97 of 2018 pending the hearing and determination of the appeal.

Reasoning

The court found that the applicant has not established a prima facie arguable case for the stay of proceedings and that granting the injunction would cause more harm than good.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed
