INTRODUCTION
1. By Notice of Motion 21st May 2025, the Applicant Catherine Njeri Macharia seeks that the Court review and or vary portion of its judgment delivered on 21st February 2025 so as to exclude property known as LR No. 3734/264 Convent Drive, Lavington (Original No. 3734/5/151) as a property that is available for distribution in the estate of G. K. Kirima (Deceased).
2. The Application is not opposed. I take note of Section 99 of the Civil procedure Act that provides-
Clerical or arithmetical mistake in judgments, decrees or orders, or errors arising therein from any accumulated slip or omission, may at any time be corrected by the court either of its own motion or on the application of any of the parties
3. It is common ground that the subject parcel of land is not registered in the name of the deceased, it is registered in the names of Stephen Kirima, Fredrick Kamau Kirima and Samuel Ndei. At paragraph 226 of the judgment it is evident that the assets excluded from distribution were those not registered in the name of the deceased.
4. Accordingly, I will correct the judgment so as to include the property known as LR No. 3734/264 Convent Drive, Lavington (Original No. 3734/5/151) at paragraph 226 of the judgment and to remove it from paragraph 240 which enumerates the properties available for distribution.
5. There shall be no order as to costs
DATED, SIGNED AND DELIVERED online via Microsoft Teams at Nairobi this 4th day of July 2025.
