Holding

The court allowed the application to recall and cancel the previous orders, giving the parties an opportunity to properly extract an order that complies with the ruling of Judge Muchelule.

Facts

The applicant, Falcon Properties Limited, filed two applications in the City Court, Nairobi, seeking to have a previous order declared null and void and recalled. The court allowed the application and recalled the previous orders.

Issues

  1. Declaration of a previous order as null and void
  2. Recall and cancellation of the previous order
  3. Costs of the application

Reasoning

The court allowed the application partly due to the variance between the previous order and the ruling of Judge Muchelule, but declined to award costs as the application had succeeded on other grounds.
