IN THE COURT OF APPEAL AT NAIROBI CORAM: OMOLO, O'KUBASU & KEIWUA, JJ.A. CIVIL APPEAL NO. 181 OF 1999 BETWEEN PETER KANYIRI KOIGI ........................................... APPELLANT AND MAKAHU Ole SEKUNDA ISAAC NCHUNGA MUKAHU GEOFFREY MWAI KABIRO ............................. RESPONDENTS (Appeal from the decision of the High Court of Kenya at Nairobi (Mitey J) dated 12th July, 1999 in H.C.O.S. NO. 556 OF 1999) ************ JUDGMENT OF THE COURT This appeal has no merit at all. The appellant sought an injunction in the High Court. That court refused to grant the injunction on the basis that a prima facie case had not been established. We have looked at the pleadings, the submissions made before the learned Judge and his ruling on the issues raised before him. The grant of an injunction is a discretionary remedy. We see absolutely no reason why we should interfere with the learned Judge's exercise of discretion and that being our view of the matter, we order that this appeal be and is hereby dismissed with costs. Dated and delivered at Nairobi this 20th day of March, 2002. R.S.C. OMOLO --------------JUDGE OF APPEAL E. O. O'KUBASU --------------JUDGE OF APPEAL M. Ole KEIWUA --------------JUDGE OF APPEAL
