(Appeal from a judgment of the High Court of Kenya at Eldoret
The applicant's application for extension of time within which to file a fresh notice of appeal has merit. The applicant's appeal to the superior court was summarily rejected. However, that decision was not communicated to the applicant on time. He filed a notice of appeal, although late, as soon as he was made aware of the summary rejection of his appeal. The appeal he later filed was struck out for being incompetent. Clearly this is a proper case for extension of time. I accordingly extend the time within which to file a notice of appeal by 14 days. It is so ordered.
Dated and delivered at Nakuru this 25th day of September, 1997.
