Holding

The court is not persuaded to allow the application to discontinue the suit, and the suit will proceed to its logical conclusion.

Facts

Ramji Meghji Gudka Limited filed a suit against Kisii County Government and two other defendants regarding the title to four plots of land. The 3rd defendant also claims title to one of the plots. The County Government contends that all titles are fraudulent as the land is public land.

Issues

  1. Whether the plaintiff can withdraw the suit
  2. Whether the court should allow the withdrawal of the suit

Reasoning

The court finds that allowing the withdrawal would not lead to a determination of the existing titles and whether the plots are public land, which is in the public interest.

Outcome

Application dismissed with costs

Orders

  • Suit will proceed to its logical conclusion
