Facts

In 2019, the County Government of Mombasa blocked its online payment platform, preventing Car Importers Association of Kenya members from paying their annual trade licenses.

Issues

  1. Constitutional validity of relocation of members from Mombasa City Centre to Miritini
  2. Respondent's failure to configure electronic licensing system

Reasoning

The Petition is dismissed due to the similarity between the instant Petition and Petition No. 8 of 2020, and the doctrine of res judicata.

Outcome

Dismissed
