Facts

Land parcel MUTITHI/CHUMBIRI/921 was transferred from the deceased Muthigani Karumi to Eliud Warui through Peterson Maina Karumi. The Plaintiff claims fraud and seeks cancellation of the transfer and restoration of her title.

Issues

  1. Whether the Plaintiff has established a prima facie case for fraud.
  2. Whether the Plaintiff will suffer such loss or injury that damages may not appropriately compensate.

Reasoning

The land was transferred by the 1st Defendant to the 2nd Defendant, and the Plaintiff has not established a prima facie case for fraud. The balance of convenience does not tilt in favor of the Plaintiff.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed
