Republic of Kenya

Criminal Appeal E017 of 2024

April 9, 2024

Between

Robert Okello

Applicant

and

Republic

Respondent

Ruling

1. I have considered the undated notice of motion application and the supporting affidavit of the applicant seeking leave to appeal out of time.

2. I note that the applicant is seeking leave to file an appeal out of time, yet he has not filed a miscellaneous application.

3. The error occurred when the applicant filed his notice of motion application under the head of an appeal, and the Case Tracking System (CTS) correctly allocated an appeal number to the application, instead of a miscellaneous number.

4. For this reason, the undated notice of motion application is hereby stuck out. The applicant is at liberty to file a proper miscellaneous application seeking leave to appeal out of time.

Orders accordingly.

RULING DATED AND DELIVERED THIS 9THDAY OF APRIL 2024_______________D. KAVEDZAJUDGE
