TypeInjunction ApplicationPosturePlaintiff seeks an injunction restraining the 1st defendant from trespassing and developing the disputed land. The 1st defendant opposes the application.CoramL.N. GACHERU
Holding
The court finds that the plaintiff has not established a prima facie case with a probability of success, and therefore, the status quo is maintained.
Facts
The plaintiff claims to be the registered owner of plot C1851, which he alleges was allotted to him in 1990. The 1st defendant disputes this and claims to be the caretaker of the plot, which she alleges is actually owned by Lilian Brenda K. Ogwoka.
Issues
- Ownership of plot C1851
- Whether the plaintiff has established a prima facie case with a probability of success
Reasoning
The court cannot determine who is the actual owner of the plot due to conflicting claims, and thus, the status quo is maintained until the suit is heard and determined.
Outcome
The application for an injunction is dismissed. The status quo is maintained, and the plaintiff is ordered to serve summons on the 2nd defendant.
Orders
- Status quo maintained
