Summary at a glance

TypeAppealPostureAppeal from a judgment of the Employment and Labour Relations CourtCoramM MBARŨ
The court dismissed the application, finding that the respondents' actions were not protected under the Employment Act and that the court's findings were not subject to review.

Facts

Superforam Limited filed a disciplinary action against 8 respondents, including George Olwanda, Vincent Nyakundi, James Lodi, Bernard Ogwaro, Dionyius Moenga, Patrick Momanyi, Robae Khavere, and Danree Multihandling Services Limited. The respondents alleged that the court's judgment was flawed due to the lack of evidence at the disciplinary floor regarding their actions.

Issues

  • Whether the court should review, vary, or clarify its judgment on the grounds that there was no evidence of the respondents calling, inciting, or instigating others to strike.
  • Whether the respondents' actions were protected under the Employment Act.

Reasoning

The court ruled that the respondents' actions were not protected under the Employment Act and that the court's findings were not subject to review. The respondents' claim that there was no evidence of their actions was not new and had been addressed in the original judgment.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed with costs to the appellant.
