Holding

The application has no merit and is dismissed.

Facts

The 2nd Defendant sold a 50ft x 100ft plot to the Plaintiff for Ksh.70,000/= in 2002. The 2nd Defendant used the title (2737) as security for a loan of Ksh.500,000/= in 2008. The Plaintiff filed a suit seeking to permanently restrain the Defendants from selling the suit land.

Issues

  1. Whether the Plaintiff has a prima facie case to challenge the charge on account of fraud.
  2. Whether the Plaintiff can question the 1st Defendant's right to exercise its power of sale as a chargee.

Reasoning

The 1st Defendant is a bank and the Plaintiff cannot challenge the 1st Defendant's right to exercise its power of sale as a chargee. The Plaintiff does not have a prima facie case with a probability of success.

Outcome
