This court delivered Judgment in favour of the plaintifis against the defendants in the present matter on 7th October 2025. 2. Apparently, the month shown at the foot of the judgment is ‘September’ in lieu of ‘October’ hence, an accidental slip for correction by this court. 3. The court is mandated to correct the accidental slip under Section 99 of the Civil Procedure Act Chapter 21 Laws of Kenya which provides; ‘Clerical or arithmetical mistakes in judgments, decrees or orders, or errors arising therein from any accidental slip or omission, may at any time be corrected by the court either of its own motion or on the application of any of the parties.’ 4. It is trite law that the main objective of such correction is to give efiect to the true intention of the court at the time of delivery of the judgment and steer the decision towards logical, or clerical perfection https://new.kenyalaw.org/akn/ke/judgment/keelc/2026/3061/eng@2026-05-21 1

through the ‘Slip Rule’ under Section 99 (supra); see Outa vs Okello & 3 others {2017} KESC 25 (KLR). 5. Wherefore, the accidental slip or error at the foot of this Honourable court’s judgment delivered on 7th October 2025 erroneously shown as 7th September 2025, is hereby corrected by replacing the Month ‘September’ with the Month ‘October’ therein. 7.
