Holding

The court has jurisdiction to investigate whether or not its directions were complied with. The preliminary objection is dismissed.

Facts

The plaintiff filed an amended decree in the sum of Kshs 35,354,362.74, and the defendant deposited Kshs 37,000,000.00 as security for an appeal. The defendant sought to stay execution pending compliance with the directions given by the court.

Issues

  1. Whether the court is functus officio
  2. Whether the application is competent

Reasoning

Outcome

The application is dismissed with costs.
