Kanisa Regulated Non-WTD Savings and Credit Cooperative Society Limited v Martin & another

Kanisa Regulated Non-WTD Savings and Credit Cooperative Society Limited v Martin & another [2025] KECPT 258 (KLR)

The tribunal found that the application to strike out the 2nd respondent was premature because the issues raised—whether the caveat was withdrawn and whether the 2nd respondent is no longer the registered owner of the collateral motor vehicle—are matters of evidence that can only be properly interrogated at trial. The tribunal emphasized that the power to strike out a party should not be exercised where the determination of the application would require the court to delve into the merits of the case or evaluate contested evidence. As such, the application lacked merit and was dismissed with c…

MATHEWS T. OKETCH v KENNETH ODHIAMBO OJWANG

MATHEWS T. OKETCH v KENNETH ODHIAMBO OJWANG [2009] KEHC 4008 (KLR)

Furthermore, any damage suffered by the plaintiff due to the defendant's default could be adequately compensated by an award of damages, as the loss was quantifiable in monetary terms. Therefore, the plaintiff did not meet the threshold for the grant of a tempor…
