Executive summary

#
This is a short procedural direction issued by the Environment and Land Court at Isiolo on 20 December 2021 by P. M. Njoroge, ELC Judge. The court expressed concern that several parties (the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th and 6th respondents), who it identified as key players in the suit, failed to attend despite knowing the matter was listed for directions. The court did not determine any substantive issues in the petition. Instead, it issued a directions timetable: the petitioners were granted 30 days to file and exchange written submissions on the petition, with filing required in both hard and soft copies in Word format, font 12. The petitioners' advocate was directed to serve the absent respondents, or their advocates, with the orders issued that day within 14 days. With the concurrence of all advocates present, the matter was fixed for directions on 28 February 2022. Counsel appearing were Odhiambo for the petitioners, Ken Muriuki for the 7th respondent and Turorey for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd respondents; the court assistant was Denge. No costs order was made and no authorities were cited. The judgment is procedural only and establishes no binding proposition of law. Advocates may cite it, if at all, only as an instance of case-management directions, including service on absent parties and a submission-filing timetable in a petition before the ELC at Isiolo.
