Security Alert Services Limited & another v Karari
Security Alert Services Limited & another v Karari (Civil Appeal E1361 of 2024) [2026] KEHC 5775 (KLR) (Civ) (30 April 2026) (Judgment)
The appeal fails because the ex-parte judgment was regular, proper service of summons and notices was established, and the Appellants' prolonged failure to defend was not excusable. No evidence supported the Appellants' claims of non-service or irregularity. The trial court correctly exercised its discretion and the alleged execution irregularities do not affect the validity of the judgment.
