REPUBLIC OF KENYA

IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA

AT NAIROBI

DIVORCE CAUSE NO: 77 OF 2007

J K G……………….…..PETITIONER

VERSUS

I N…………..…..........RESPONDENT

RULING

The orders sought in prayer (a) and (b) of the application dated 2nd August 2012 were allowed on 7th February 2013.  It was directed then that prayers (c) and (d) be canvassed on a date to be granted at the registry.

The matter came up for hearing on 25th September 2014 of the application of 2nd August 2012.  There is an affidavit of service indicating that notice of the hearing had been served on the respondent on 30th July 2014.  The respondent did not attend court on the appointed date.  I reserved the matter thereafter for ruling.

I have perused the court file and noted that the application dated 2nd August 2012 had been served on the respondent on 23rd January 2013.  There is an affidavit of service to that effect sworn on 5th February 2013.  She did not file a reply to the application.  As it is the application is unopposed.

I do hereby grant the application dated 2nd August 2012 in terms of prayers (c), (d) and (e).  There shall be no order as to costs.

DATED, SIGNED and DELIVERED at NAIROBI this 23rd DAY OF January  2015.
