PLAINTIFF AND ROMANO MUNYUGI M’MBIJIWE (SUED AS THE LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE OF THE ESTATE OF ROSALIA ANDEA (DECEASED) .................... DEFENDANT RULING 1. The court is asked to lift inhibition orders placed on LR No. Nkuene/Kithunguri/340 through orders made on 30.7.2015. 2. The reason is that the purpose of the orders was to preserve the suit property until the suit was determined. The applicant says that following the determination of the suit, there was need to lift the orders of inhibition to pave the way for the implementation of the decision. 3. Section 70 of the Land Registration Act grants the court powers to impose inhibition orders restricting any transaction over a title to land until further orders or an occurrence of an event. See Julius Nturibi Rukaria vs Mary Ncekei Kirianki and another (2021) eKLR. 4. In this suit, the applicant says the event envisaged in the order has occurred and so the orders of preservation of the property are no longer necessary to efiectuate the decree of this court. The respondent has filed no objection to the application. Consequently, I allow the application with no order as to costs.
