Republic of Kenya

Miscellaneous Succession Cause E038 of 2024

MS Shariff, J

June 13, 2024

In the matter of

Irene Omolo Ondigo

Applicant

Ruling

1. I have considered the petition for limited grant ad colligenda bona brought by Irene Omolo Ondigo dated 11th June 2024, the affidavit in support thereof sworn on even date by the Petitioner and the annexures thereto and I do hereby note that whereas the deceased died on 24th December 2022, no explanation has been tendered for the failure by the Petitioner to petition for full grant.

2. In the circumstances, I am unable to certify this application as urgent and I direct that the Petitioner and her co-wife appear before this court on 20th June, 2024 for taking of directions, solely because issues of want of maintenance and education of minors have been raised in the petition.

DATED, SIGNED AND DELIVERED THIS 13TH DAY OF JUNE, 2024. M. S. SHARIFFJUDGE
