APPELLANT AND HABIBA TADICHA GUYO .......................................................... 1ST RESPONDENT YUSSUF TADICHA GUYO .......................................................... 2ND RESPONDENT HALIMA TADICHA GUYO ......................................................... 3RD RESPONDENT ABDIQADIR TADICHA GUYO .................................................. 4TH RESPONDENT RULING 1. This appeal was led on April 12, 2022. Since then, the proposed appellant has not moved the appeal in any way. He just dumped the proposed appeal in court and vanished. I opine that courts of law should not be dumping grounds for suits which are not meant to be litigated by the parties. Such dumping shenanigans and contrivances have contributed to unwarranted backlog of cases. 2. On January 25, 2022, I directed that notice be issued for the parties to come to court for directions on May 9, 2022. 3. On May 9, 2022, the parties did not come to court. I directed that notice be issued for the parties to come to court for directions on June 20, 2022. On June 20, 2022 the parties did not come to court. I directed that notice be issued for the intended appellant to set the case down for hearing within 3 months and for the parties to come to court for directions on September 26, 2022. I declared that the parties were being granted a last chance. The court is aware that it is the responsibility of the appellant to serve the respondents. 4. Courts cannot issue orders in vain. On September 26, 2022, I granted the appellant a last chance. In the circumstances, I issue the following orders; https://new.kenyalaw.org/akn/ke/judgment/keelc/2022/12589/eng@2022-09-26 1
