1. The last time this 2013 matter was before a Judge was on 19th February 2014 which is over ten years ago.

2. The application for revocation of grant arose from Siaya PM Succession Cause No. 69 of 2009.

3. However, the law has since changed and the lower courts have the power to hear and determine summons for revocation of grants issued by the said courts.

4. Accordingly, as the summons herein are overtaken by events, without prosecution, it is dismissed for want of prosecution. This file is closed.
