GILBERT JOSEPH KIBUNJA.........................................PLAINTIFF

VERSUS

JULIUS MUGAMBI GACECE.....................................DEFENDANT

RULING

1. When the parties were to come to court on 29. 11. 2017 to show cause why this suit should not be dismissed for want of prosecution in terms of order 17 rule 2(1) of the Civil Procedure Rules, they did not turn up.

2. I am satisfied that the apposite notice was properly issued.

3. I find that the parties have failed to show cause why this suit should not be dismissed for want of prosecution in terms of order 17 rule 2(1) of the Civil Procedure Rules. The suit, therefore, merits dismissal.

4. The suit is dismissed.

5. It is so ordered.

Delivered in open court at Chuka this 29th day of November, 2017
