Florence Wanjiku Gitau v Natu Investments Limited & Chabrin Agencies Limited

The increase in license fees after 31st August 2009 was not…

In re M M [2018] KEHC 8018 (KLR)

The court found that the respondents and other alleged contemnors were fully aware of the court's interim orders, as evidenced by their attendance in court, interactions with the process server, and their own admissions.
