Holding

The court dismissed the application for restraining orders and refused to grant the plaintiff's request for cancellation of titles or refund.

Facts

The plaintiff claims to have bought a portion of land parcel No. KISUMU/NYALUNYA 2307 on 2/10/09 for Kshs130,000/=. The 2nd defendant secretly subdivided the land into parcel Nos 3957, 3958, and 3959, and sold a portion to the 3rd defendant. The plaintiff seeks cancellation of titles, a refund, and restraining orders.

Issues

  1. Cancellation of titles in the names of 2nd and 3rd defendants
  2. Refund of Kshs130,000/= at current market rates
  3. Restraining orders preventing cultivation, sale, subdivision, transfer, possession, or interference with the suit land

Reasoning

The court found that the plaintiff's claims were not supported by evidence and that the defendants did not collude to re-sell the land.

Outcome

Appeal dismissed
