Holding

The Court finds no merit in the Motion and dismisses it with costs.

Facts

The applicant, Mary Atieno Madida, was terminated by the Migori County Secretary and Governor. She challenged the termination through judicial review proceedings, which were dismissed. She then appealed to the Public Service Commission, but the Respondents instructed her to hand over her office on December 6, 2022.

Issues

  1. Whether the Court has jurisdiction to grant an injunction restraining the Respondents from terminating the applicant's services.
  2. Whether the Court should grant an injunction pending the hearing and determination of the applicant's appeal before the Public Service Commission.

Reasoning

The Court determined that the Public Service Commission has jurisdiction over the termination of employment claims and that the applicant's Motion is an abuse of the court process.

Outcome

Dismissed with costs
