Holding

The motion to remove the caution is allowed with costs.

Facts

Cecilia Gachire Mburu and Mary Wairimu filed a plaint in 1983 seeking to transfer 1.5 acres of land to the plaintiffs. The matter was arbitrated by elders and a decision was made in 1994. The plaintiffs now seek to remove a caution registered against the title.

Issues

  1. Whether the plaintiffs can remove the caution registered against the title.
  2. Whether the motion was filed out of time.

Reasoning

The caution is registered against the title, and the plaintiffs have been unable to actualize the decision of the court. The motion is not time barred.

Outcome

Judgment in favor of the plaintiffs
