************************
RULING OF THE COURT
This appeal was heard by a Three-Judge bench that included Githinji, JA who has since retired from service. Although three judgments were prepared and duly signed by the respective judges, the judgments were not delivered while Githinji, JA was still in service. This is because the parties failed to attend Court for delivery of judgment despite the matter being fixed on two occasions and the parties duly served with notices to attend court for delivery of judgment.
As the judgments of the two remaining judges are not concurring, the judgments cannot now be delivered. The appeal is therefore referred to the Registrar of the Court of Appeal for a hearing date to be fixed on priority for the appeal to be heard afresh by another bench excluding, Okwengu, JA and J. Mohammed, JA.
DATED and delivered at Nairobi this 24th day of January, 2020.
