Facts

Maria Gathoni Wambugo claims that Raphael Parsitau Kumoin has encroached on her land, subdivided it, and sold the resultant subdivisions to third parties without her consent. She seeks an interlocutory injunction to prevent further sales and to obtain copies of the title deeds of the encroached land.

Issues

Reasoning

The court finds that the applicant has established a right that needs to be protected, as the defendant has encroached on her land and disposed of the encroached portion into several portions, which could risk further convoluting the issues and aggravating the alleged violations.
