Dear Valued Clients and Friends of the Firm,

As the year draws to a close, we take this moment to thank you for the trust you have placed in Muriuki Muriithi & Co Advocates. Your confidence in our counsel, especially in moments of uncertainty and dispute, remains the foundation of our practice.

The past year has not been without its challenges. Economic pressure, delayed processes, evolving legal standards, and increased demands on justice institutions tested patience and resilience across the board. These realities were felt by clients and practitioners alike. Yet within these constraints, progress was still made. Rights were asserted, disputes resolved, and important principles upheld.

What sustained us throughout was a shared commitment to the rule of law, professionalism, and clarity of purpose. We are grateful for clients who remained engaged, candid, and forward looking, even when outcomes required time and persistence.

As we look to the new year, we do so with renewed resolve. The coming year presents opportunity for growth, sharper advocacy, improved systems, and more deliberate service. We remain committed to offering legal solutions that are principled, practical, and responsive to the realities our clients face.

May this festive season bring you rest, reflection, and renewed strength. We wish you and your families a peaceful Christmas and a New Year marked by stability, progress, and meaningful success.

We look forward to continuing the journey with you in the year ahead.

Warm regards,

Jackson Muriuki Muriithi

# Bench Watch: Impact of Succession on Trust Land

In a recent judgment by the Environment and Land Court, the case **Njagi v Gichigo & Another (Environment and Land Appeal E041 of 2023)** highlighted significant issues surrounding the intersection of succession and customary trust land.

The court upheld the decision that the land parcel Ngariama/Thirikwa/***, co-owned by Cyprian Njagi Gichigo and the late Phyllis Muthoni, was not held in trust for the Appellant, Bedan Muriithi Njagi, and his siblings. The judgment emphasized that once land is registered under succession proceedings, any customary trusts previously existing may be extinguished, reshaping the rights of beneficiaries.

Key Takeaways:

Customary Trust vs. Succession: The court clarified that customary trusts can be disrupted by formal succession processes.

Registration Matters: The nature of land registration (common vs. joint ownership) plays a crucial role in determining beneficiaries' rights.

Family Dynamics: This case illustrates the complexities that arise in family land disputes, especially when multiple generations are involved.
The ruling serves as a reminder of the importance of understanding land rights and succession laws to protect familial interests in ancestral lands.
