RULING
- It has come clear that the subject property has already been litigated previously by Nathan Mureithia Kabogo who was the 7th Defendant in CMCC No.384 of 1980.
- In this proceeding, the person known as Nathan Mureithia Kabogo was evicted from the land.
- Similarly, the father Jimmy Muchiri Mureithia was again sued in CMCC No. 1280 of 2004 in which he was ordered to vacate this suit property.
- An order of eviction was issued against Jimmy Muchiri Muriithi on the 08.02.2007 and the order is still valid.
- Now, the son who is the Plaintiff in this suit has filed a claim of adverse possession.
- The court is of the view that this claim is prejudicial to the orders issued in the two files and there is a likelihood that this court might end up denying a lawful Decree Holder from enjoying their fruits.
- Consequently, this court hereby stays its own proceeding pending the execution of the order issued against the father and thereafter it will give further direction.
- The matter will be mentioned on 03.11.2025 for further directions.
