Holding
The application is dismissed with costs to the 1st respondent
Facts
The applicant/appellant seeks an injunction to prevent the sale of land parcel NYAKI/KITHOKA/1791, which was originally registered in the name of their late mother and secretly transferred to the 2nd respondent without the family's knowledge.
Issues
- Whether the applicant has established a prima facie case for an injunction
- Whether the timing of the application was in bad faith
Reasoning
The applicant is found guilty of material non-disclosure and the timing of the application is seen as bad faith. The applicant has not demonstrated a prima facie case for an injunction due to the admitted indebtedness and the risk of the debt escalating.
Outcome
Appeal dismissed
Orders
- Application dismissed with costs to the 1st respondent
- Any temporary orders of injunction given herein are hereby discharged
