Paulina Chemutai & 1 other v Kipyegon Arap Sang & 3 others

REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT KERICHO ENVIRONMENT AND LAND DIVISION MISCELLANEOUS CIVIL APPLICATION NO.57 OF 2015 PAULINA CHEMUTAI..........................................................APPLICANT VERSUS KIPYEGON ARAP SANG.........................................1ST RESPONDENT MARIA TAPSAGAA CHIRCHIR.............................2ND RESPONDENT JACQUELINE CHEPKORIR...................................3RD RESPONDENT PETER K. LANGAT..................................................4TH RESPONDENT AND JOTHAM NGENO............................................................CONTEMNOR RULING (Application seeking leave to commence contempt proceedings; current law not providing for such leave; leave not necessary; application struck out.) I have seen the application herein dated 28th September, 2015. It seeks leave to commence contempt proceedings. The current law is that leave is not necessary before one may commence contempt proceedings. See the Court of Appeal decision in the case of Christine Wangari Gachege vs. Elizabeth Wanjiru Evans & Others (2014) eKLR. The application herein is therefore misplaced and is struck out with no orders as to costs. DELIVERED, DATED AND SIGNED AT KERICHO THIS 1st DAY OF OCTOBER, 2015. MUNYAO SILA JUDGE
