Facts
The Plaintiff, Mary Were Onyango, claimed that the Defendant, Crispine Omondi Opondo, had illegally constructed on her land and was seeking an injunction to stop him from doing so. The Defendant, on the other hand, claimed that the land was sold to him fraudulently and sought to have the sale annulled.

- Whether the Plaintiff can recover costs
Reasoning
The court found that there was no basis to enjoin the Chief Land Registrar or the law firm of Amolo & Gachoka Advocates, and that the Plaintiff had not paid the firm and was not their client.
Outcome
Both applications dismissed
