There were Defenses filed to deny the claims in the Suit followed by a Reply thereto. 3. Contemporaneously to the Plaint, an Application for temporary injunction to preserve the suit property was made and granted. The suit was then set down for Hearing. 4. Before the Hearing of the suit, 3 sons to the late Momanyi Oseko viz. Erick Agwata Momanyi, Tom Mong’are Momanyi and Patrick Ondieki Oseko (who was queuing at the Registry to file his Application for leave to be joined) applied to be joined as Interested parties. Before the Hearing started, a number of fruitful and prolific admissions took place and the Court found it unnecessary to procced with the oral Hearing of the Suit. 5. As has been admitted by all the parties herein, the suit land L.R. No. Isoge Settlement Scheme/Kineni Block 1/67 is registered in the name of the late Momanyi Oseko who died on 2/5/2008. Momanyi Oseko was the father to the Plaintifi’s father, Josephat Oseko Momanyi who died on 12/1/2016. The parties also agree that the suit land was registered in the name of the late Benson Nyasimi Momanyi who died on 20/1/2022 to hold the same in trust for his father Momanyi Oseko. Save for the ad litem Grant issued to the Plaintifi herein for purposes of instituting this suit, the 3 Estates mentioned above remain unadministered. In the premises, this court orders the cancellation of the Title Deed for Isoge Settlement Scheme/Kineni Block 1/67 and orders further that the land be registered in the name of Momanyi Oseko(Deceased), pending the succession of the Estate of the said Momanyi Oseko. 6. In addition, I order that until the succession process of the Estate of the late Momanyi Oseko is finalized, there should be no intermeddling with the suit land. These Orders dispose of this suit and I wish to appreciate all the Counsel and the parties herein for being honest, candid and truthful. There shall be no orders as to costs.
