TypeCivilPostureApplication for Temporary Injunction and Access to GoodsCoramB. THURANIRA JADEN
Holding

The temporary injunction is allowed on condition that the plaintiff pays the admitted rent of Kshs.684,973.93 plus auctioneers charges.

Facts

The plaintiff, Rebecca Brenda Juma, executed a franchise agreement with Doncom Ltd. for a restaurant at Holden mall. On April 15, 2012, Doncom Ltd. forced the plaintiff to close the restaurant alleging non-payment of rent. The plaintiff claims she paid Kshs.684,973.93, while Doncom Ltd. claims the rent was Kshs.1,371,164.50.

Issues

  1. Whether rent has been paid by the plaintiff
  2. Whether the plaintiff's goods belong to her

Reasoning

The plaintiff admitted owing Kshs.684,973.93, but did not explain why she had not paid it. The plaintiff's non-payment of rent led to the filing of the application, and she is in breach of the lease agreement.

Outcome

Temporary injunction granted
