Environment and Land Court
Case number
Environment and Land Case E060 of 2025
Judge
SM Kibunja
The court granted temporary and mandatory injunctions protecting the plaintiff’s registered land pending trial, finding a prima facie case and irreparable harm.
The court found that the plaintiffs/applicants had established a prima facie case regarding the procedural irregularities in the convening of the AGM, their expulsion, and the change of the club's status.

Judge
JM Onyango
The court found that although the Applicant did not provide documentary evidence of his inability to access the trial court file, the delay in filing the application was minimal and satisfactorily explained. The application was filed only one day after the statutory period lapsed, and the court exercised its discretion to grant leave to appeal out of time. On the request for an injunction, the court held that the Applicant had demonstrated a prima facie case and that the intended appeal was not frivolous, but failed to show irreparable harm if the injunction was not granted. Regarding the sta…

LC Komingoi
The court found that the applicant failed to establish a prima facie case for the grant of a temporary injunction. The defendants' undisputed, uninterrupted occupation of the suit property for nearly three decades undermined the applicant's claim of urgency and irreparable harm. The applicant did not provide a plausible explanation for the prolonged delay in asserting her rights, nor did she demonstrate any imminent threat of harm that could not be compensated by damages. As the conditions for granting an interlocutory injunction must be satisfied sequentially, and the applicant failed to mee…
