APPLICANT AND JESYIR SINGH REHAL ...................................................................... RESPONDENT JUDGMENT 1. By Notice of Motion dated 18th November 2024, the Applicant Law Firm prays for these orders:a. That the Court be pleased to order that the amount of Kenya Shillings Five Hundred and Two Thousand Five Hundred and Seven (Kshs. 502,507.00/=) only certified on the certificate of costs dated 19th August, 2024 be adopted as judgement against the Respondent. b. That a Decree be issued in respect of the certificate of costs and the that the Applicant be at liberty to execute for recovery of the same in such manner as Decree of this Honourable Court. c. That the costs of this Application be borne by the Respondent. 2. The Application is supported by affidavit evidence of Peter Raydon Mwangi Advocate. He deposes that their Advocate/Client Bill of Costs dated 15th August 2023 was taxed by the Deputy Registrar of this court and Certificate of Taxation dated 19th August 2024 in the sum of Kshs. 502,507/= was issued. The Applicant craves a Decree in the stated sum to enable execution against the Respondent, hence this application. 3. The Respondent opposes the Application vide his affidavit in reply. In essence, be opposes the Application on the ground that it is meant to defeat his own Miscellaneous Application No. 269 of 2023 seeking an order directing the Applicant herein to render accounts of rent collected on a specified property, on behalf of the Respondent. https://new.kenyalaw.org/akn/ke/judgment/kehc/2025/14953/eng@2025-10-22 1

4. I have considered the rival positions of the parties. Any nexus between this Application and the Respondent’s said Miscellaneous Application No. 269 of 2023 is not clear. Nothing prevents the Respondent from pursuing his Application were this court to dispose of the Application before it. 5. This Application dated 18th November 2024 is therefore found to be merited and is allowed as prayed. The consequential Decree shall issue accordingly. J. M. NANG’EA, JUDGE.
