NO. 31 OF 2019 ISAAC OJWANG OKOYO..............APPLICANT VERSUS REPUBLIC.....................................RESPONDENT (Being an application for Revision of sentence in Siaya PMCRC No. 314 of 2007). RULING 1 I have considered the application for sentence revision. The Applicant/Convict was sentenced to serve life imprisonment for the offence of defilement. 2 He appealed to the High Court and Court of Appeal which appeals were dismissed. 3 This Court lacks jurisdiction to hear and determine an application for revision of sentence where there has been an appeal or where the Applicant ought to have appealed. 4 Accordingly, the application for revision of sentence is hereby struck out. 5 The file is hereby closed. DATED AT SIAYA THIS 26TH DAY OF SEPTEMBER, 2019. HON. LADY JUSTICE R.E. ABURILI JUDGE
