Songoi v Muhunzu

Songoi v Muhunzu [2025] KEELC 5310 (KLR)

The court held that the applicant, as a defendant in the subordinate court, lacked standing to withdraw the suit filed by the respondent, as withdrawal is a prerogative of the plaintiff under Order 25 Rule 1 of the Civil Procedure Rules. However, the court found that the applicant had established sufficient cause for the transfer of Bungoma Chief Magistrate Court ELC Case No. 87 OF 2021 to the Environment and Land Court for consolidation with Bungoma ELC O.S No. E 007 OF 2024. This was because both suits involved the same parties and subject matter, and the claim for adverse possession could…

AO Basid Limited v Diamond Trust Bank & another

AO Basid Limited v Diamond Trust Bank & another [2025] KEHC 7513 (KLR)

The court found that the two suits, though involving the same borrower, pertain to distinct transactions, facilities, and securities. The applicant failed to provide evidence that would justify consolidation under the established legal principles. The properties and parties in the two suits are not identical, and the claims arise from separate loan arrangements. The court further held that the applicant did not meet the threshold for injunctive relief, as no prima facie case was established. The previous application for injunction had already been dismissed, and the applicant did not demonstr…
