Holding

The court denied the application for review, finding that the applicant did not make out a case for review and that the applicant's arguments were similar to those made before Justice Korir W.

Facts

The applicant, Ahmed Chege Gikera, sought to review a judgment by Justice Korir W. issued on 25th May 2016, alleging that the judgment was based on expired orders issued by Justice Mutungi on 6th November 2014.

Issues

  1. Whether the applicant has made out a case for the review of Justice Korir W.'s judgment.
  2. Whether the applicant is entitled to a review given that they have already filed an appeal.

Reasoning

The court ruled that the applicant's application for review was not well-founded, as the judgment was not based on an apparent error or omission, and the applicant had already filed an appeal.

Outcome

Denied
