Miss a court deadline and you might assume the case is over. Not necessarily.
In the Supreme Court ruling of County Government of Kajiado v Tata Chemicals Magadi Limited Application No. E038 of 2025, the court allowed Kajiado County to proceed with an appeal it had filed three days late.
Why the leniency? Because the County, like all public bodies, can't simply act on its own. The law requires several offices to agree before it goes to court. The Court accepted that this genuine legal requirement explained the short delay.
The Court was clear: a document filed out of time without leave or permission is irregular and of no effect, a legal nullity. So even though the County won its extension, its earlier filing counted for nothing, and it was ordered to start again and file afresh.
