REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT EMBU Civil Case 69 of 2005 THETU MWANGI MIGWI…………………………...…………PLAINTIFF VERSUS JAMES MUNENE NDUBI…………….…….…………1ST DEFENDANT HILLARY MUNENE KAMAU…………………………2ND DEFENDANT RULING Application dated 28/11/2006 seeks leave to amend the defence according to draft annexed. The application is based on the ground that suit was filed out of time and that although Notice of Raise Preliminary Objection was indicated there was no indication of the nature of Preliminary Objection to be raised. I have examined the draft amendment and except the nature of the sections of law there are no facts to indicate the period of time that it is late. I have read grounds of opposition and I am of the view in matters of land a hearing is necessary to prove that suit is filed out of time. I therefore dismiss the application with costs to the Respondent. Dated this 6th November, 2007. J. N. KHAMINWA JUDGE
