Facts

The County Council of Transmara sought injunctive orders against Oloololo Game Ranch Limited in March 2007. The respondent's advocates advised settlement outside court, and the applicant's advocates recorded a consent on behalf of the applicant. The consent was later challenged by the applicant.

  1. Whether the consent order and decree entered into on 28 August 2007 were valid and enforceable.
  2. Whether the applicant's advocates acted within their authority and in accordance with the applicant's instructions when recording the consent.

Reasoning

The court finds no merit in the application. The applicant's advocates acted within their authority and in accordance with the applicant's instructions. The delay in filing the application is inadmissible.
