In today’s episode, we discuss the procedures that determine whether your case qualifies to be heard in the Small Claims Court.
Hi, my name is Rose. A couple of years ago, I entered into an agreement with someone to build a website for my new business.
The developer invoiced me for KES.100,000 to do the work, asking that it be paid upfront. Immediately after making payment, the games began. I could not reach the developer, and there was no website.
After a frustrating few months of trying to follow up the developer, I decided to get a lawyer to send a demand note. Unsurprisingly, the developer never responded to the demand letter. My lawyer suggested we file a small claims suit against him for recovery of the money, and we did that around May last year.
However, because of the pandemic, and the shift to a new e-filing system, the case file got lost and it only reappeared recently. The developer has filed a defence but we are yet to get a date. However, someone told me recently that there is a new court handling claims like mine, and I wanted to know, how do I proceed with my case to get justice in the fastest possible way.
