Division and case type: Employment and Labour Relations CourtMiscellaneous Applications
The court upheld the respondent’s preliminary objection to the applicant’s motion for contempt proceedings, ruling that the motion was procedurally defective because it sought to punish public officials for contempt of court without first obtaining judicial review proceedings and an order of mandamus to compel compliance with the court decree. The court held that contempt proceedings against public officers for failure to comply with court orders require prior judicial review and mandamus to establish the officials’ duty to act, as per the precedent in Republic v The Attorney General & Another Exparte James Alfred Koroso (2013) eKLR. The motion was struck with costs for failing to follow the correct procedural steps under the Government Proceedings Act 2022 and Civil Procedure Rules 2010.

Division and case type: Claims and Labour Relations DivisionClaim/Causes
The Claimant, as the widow of the deceased Professor Fredrick Otieno, substituted herself as the administratrix of his estate after the deceased's death. She sought declarations and compensation for unlawful termination of employment as Vice Chancellor and Professor, arguing that the termination was unfair, wrongful, and unprocedural due to the Council's decision influenced by an undisclosed Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission letter, lack of due process, and the termination of both roles without proper contractual renewal. The Respondent denied the claim, asserting the deceased was never properly appointed as a Professor and that the termination followed due process despite investigations. The court granted the Claimant's application to substitute the deceased as administratrix and allowed the amended claim to proceed.
