TypeMotion to Set Aside Warrants of Attachment and Stay ExecutionPostureRespondent's Motion to Set Aside Warrants of Attachment and Stay ExecutionCoramRadido Stephen
Holding

The motion is dismissed with costs to the Claimant.

Facts

The Respondent sought to set aside warrants of attachment and sale granted on 30th November 2016, and to stay execution of the judgment and decree. The decretal sum of Kshs 522,791/- was deposited into Court on 15 December 2016.

Issues

  1. Setting aside warrants of attachment and sale
  2. Granting leave to pay the decretal sum in instalments

Reasoning

The Court dismissed the motion as the decretal sum had already been deposited into Court, and there was no legal justification to allow the warrants to stand. The Respondent's attempt to settle the decretal sum in instalments was unmerited and misplaced.

Outcome

Motion dismissed with costs to the Claimant

Orders

  • Warrants of attachment and sale set aside
  • Leave granted to pay the decretal sum in instalments

Remedies

  • Costs awarded to the Claimant
