Facts

The plaintiff, Salesians of Don Bosco, filed an application to allow their application, vacate the suit premises, and evict the defendant, Dagoreti Youth Centre Limited, within seven days. The defendant changed their legal representation and filed a consent with the plaintiff's advocate.

Issues

  1. Authority of the defendant's new legal representation
  2. Eviction of the defendant from the suit premises

Reasoning

The court found that the Notice of Change of Advocate was filed without the authority and/or instructions of the Defendant and that the firm of Achoki & Associates Advocates are properly on record for the defendant.

Outcome

The court makes no order as to costs respecting the two applications struck out.
