Holding

The application for temporary injunction is dismissed as the plaintiffs have not established a prima facie case against the defendant.

Facts

The plaintiffs, Mesgo Limiteed and EMBU FOOD INDUSTRIES LIMITED, are indebted to the defendant, NATIONAL BANK OF KENYA LIMITED, for monies advanced under a loan Facility Agreement. The plaintiffs claim that the defendant has threatened to sell their property and has not served statutory notices for redemption.

Issues

  1. Whether the plaintiffs have established a prima facie case against the defendant for the issuance of temporary injunction.
  2. Whether the plaintiffs have made efforts to pay the amounts due and if the debt continues to attract interest.

Reasoning

The court finds that the plaintiffs are indebted to the defendant and that the plaintiffs have not made efforts to pay the amounts due, which debt continues to attract interest. The plaintiffs have not established a prima facie case against the defendant.

Outcome

The application is dismissed.

Orders

  • Costs shall abide the outcome of the main suit.
