The applicant filed the application dated 29/5/2024 on 18/6/2024 seeking for leave to apply for Judicial Review Orders of certiorari and prohibition, challenging the decision of the Rent Restriction Tribunal rendered on 3/6/2024 in RRC E1170 of 2023.
I have perused the provisions of Section 8(2) of the Rent Restriction Act (as amended).
The Sections provides for appeals against decision of the Tribunal and not Judicial Review. Furthermore, following the establishment and operationalization of the Environment and Land Court. The Act was amended to provide and confer jurisdiction to the Environment and Land Court, instead of the High Court as was the case, previously.
Accordingly, I find the application dated 29/5/2024 to be misplaced. It was filed in a court without jurisdiction and in a manner not provided for in law.
The application is struck. No orders as to costs.
Court: The file is closed.
