Holding
The Plaintiff's suit is dismissed with costs.
Facts
The Plaintiff claims he purchased shares and received receipts from the Defendant's company in 1972, but lost them. He claims he was allocated plot number 73, which was given to Shadrack Makundi Mailu (deceased). The Defendant claims the Plaintiff is not a member and the land was allocated to Shadrack Makundi Mailu.
Issues
- Whether the Plaintiff was a member of the Defendant's company in 1972
- Whether the Plaintiff's claim against the Defendant's company was properly joined
Reasoning
The Plaintiff failed to prove he was a member of the Defendant's company and the Defendant's company was not registered fraudulently, by mistake or misrepresentation. The Plaintiff's claim against the Defendant's company was fatally defective due to non-joinder of party.
