Holding

The application for an interlocutory injunction is dismissed with costs

Facts

The plaintiff, ESNAS ASIRI MUNG’EDI, sought an interlocutory injunction against the defendants, including Stephen Simon ASIRIKWA, Roselyne NANGEKHE, Joseph Opicho KAWA, Pridgeon Barasa MASAKE, Aslan E. LASCAR BRAHIM, Isabel Martha NJAMBI, and Teresa Nakhungu WATI. The plaintiff's affidavit referred to a confirmed grant but did not include a copy of the grant or details of the deceased's estate, beneficiaries, and respective shares.

Issues

  1. Whether the plaintiff demonstrated a prima facie case with a probability of success
  2. Whether the plaintiff would suffer irreparable loss and damages
  3. Whether the balance of convenience tilts in the plaintiff's favor

Reasoning

The court found that the principles underlying the issuance of an interlocutory injunction were not satisfied and that the plaintiff did not meet the criteria for an interlocutory injunction.
