Holding

The court denies the Plaintiff's application for an injunction.

Facts

The Plaintiff claims to be the legal and beneficial owner of a 100-acre parcel of land in Kibaoni village, Samburu Trading Center, Kwale County. The 1st Respondent disputes this claim, arguing that the Plaintiff has not complied with the conditions of the letter of allotment.

Issues

  1. Whether the Plaintiff satisfies the conditions to grant an injunction as stipulated under Giella versus Cassman Brown
  2. Whether the Plaintiff might otherwise suffer irreparable injury which would not adequately be compensated by an award of damages

Reasoning

The court finds that the Plaintiff has not established a prima facie case with a likelihood of success regarding the ownership of the property. The court also notes that the Plaintiff has not shown evidence of wastage or interference with the land.

Outcome

The application is dismissed.
