I think they have to rule within fourteen days - the Rules are subsidiary to Article 140(2) of the Constitution which provides:

Within fourteen days after the filing of a petition under clause
(1), the Supreme Court shall hear and determine the petition and its
decision shall be final.

emphasis added


Point of clarification: Are the 14 days inclusive or exclusive of weekends and public holidays?

Prime Minister Raila Odinga is now demanding a forensic audit of the entire electronic system used in the March 4 presidential elections.

What's the difference between a "normal" audit and a "forensic" audit?


I think forensic simply means that it is done with the evidence collected to be used as part of court proceedings!!!!


Mcrg, did you come back with politics? ......

Now that we have seen Isaac Hassan's reply, does anyone have a RINK to the original petition filed by Raila Odinga?

So now, if it is 14 days, that means since the petition was lodged on 16 March, the verdict should be out on 30 March, which is a Saturday.

So this 14 day stories floating around have no basis or substance?


Here is the basis:

Constitution of Kenya 2010

140. (1) A person may file a petition in the Supreme Court to challenge the election of the President-elect within seven days after the date of the declaration of the results of the presidential election.

(2) Within fourteen days after the filing of a petition under clause (1), the Supreme Court shall hear and determine the petition and its decision shall be final.

Notice that it says within 14 days; in other words, they can give a ruling 30 minutes after filing if they so wished... 14 days is the maximum they are allowed.

Please download your copy of the constitution and be reading it! It is available in many government websites
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

Constitution of Kenya, 2010;
Article 259(6)

If a period of time prescribed by this Constitution for any purpose is six days or less, Sundays and public holidays shall not count when calculating the time.
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.
