#Kenya's Environment and Land Court in Isiolo granted temporary relief in a land dispute but required the applicant to serve the other side before a full hearing.
What this practically means
#Executive summary
#This is an interlocutory ruling of the Environment and Land Court at Isiolo delivered on 22nd December 2021 by P. M. Njoroge J on a Notice of Motion dated 22nd December 2021. The judgment does not disclose the case number, the parties' names, or the substantive relief sought, beyond the fact that the application carried an ex parte prayer (Prayer 2) and was lodged by a petitioner against respondents. Having perused the application and all annexed documents, the court found that the issues raised could only be clarified after the parties had been heard. The court accordingly certified the application as urgent and directed that it be heard on a priority basis. It granted Prayer 2 ex parte, directed the petitioner to properly serve the application upon the respondents within 10 days, and fixed the application for inter partes hearing on 17th January 2022. No costs order was made and no authorities or statutes were cited. This is an interim procedural decision rather than a determination of the suit; the substantive questions remain open for determination at the inter partes hearing.
