1. Upon consideration of the Notice of Motion dated 10th of March 2026, filed by James Kayioni Kaikai, a prose litigant Applicant herein, seeking, orders of stay of execution of the Ruling and/order of the Chief Magistrates Court at Kilgoris delivered on 10th of March 2026, dismissing these two Notices of Motion dated 8th December 2025, and 28th January 2026 and seeking an order of stay of eviction to restrain the Respondent the OCPD/DCC Transmara West from evicting to him from Transmara/ Olomismis/1329 pending hearing and determination of the intended Appeal be filed before this court.
2. Noting that the Respondent did not file any Response to the application, and noting further that the application was filed in vacuo, in terms that no Memorandum of Appeal had been filed before filing of the application, leading to the court observing the same in its proceedings of 24/03/2026, while the application was filed on 10/03/2026.
3. Noting further that the Applicant filed the Memorandum of Appeal after almost 2 weeks after filing of the application, it follows then that the issue for determination is whether the application as filed is competent.
4. The court now opines that as filed, the application is fatally defective having been filed without the Memorandum of Appeal, yet it seeks a stay of execution against the orders issued.
5. The late filing of the Memorandum of Appeal does not cure the said defect.
6. It follows that the is no competent application for the court for to consider and the inevitable conclusion is that the application dated 10th of March 2026, is hereby struck out.
7. There shall be no orders as to costs, as no response to the application was filed and the Respondent’s submissions were filed out of time and were not considered.
Dated at Kilgoris this 30th day of April 2026
