Kariru v National Hospital Insurance Sacco Society Limited

Kariru v National Hospital Insurance Sacco Society Limited [2024] KECPT 935 (KLR)

The Tribunal found that the only substantive issue raised in the Respondent's Statement of Defence was whether the Claimant's deposits had accumulated to the amount claimed. The Tribunal held that the amount of refunds due is a material issue that requires further interrogation and evidence at trial.

Githei v National Hospital Insurance Sacco Society Limited [2024] KECPT 920 (KLR)

The Tribunal found that the only issue raised in the respondent's defence was whether the claimant's deposits had accumulated to the amount claimed. The Tribunal held that the 'amount' of refunds is a material issue requiring further interrogation and evidence, thus constituting a bona fide triable issue. The Tribunal further noted that the letter relied upon by the claimant, allegedly containing an admission, was not relevant to the present application for striking out the defence, as the test is whether the defence raises any triable issue, not whether there is an admission. Consequently, t…
