Ongata Works Limited v Tatu City Ltd.
Ongata Works Limited v Tatu City Limited (Commercial Arbitration Cause E038 of 2024) [2025] KEHC 1916 (KLR)
Key Principle
On an application under section 35(2)(b)(ii) of the Kenyan Arbitration Act, an arbitral award of costs may be set aside as contrary to public policy where the costs are manifestly excessive, punitive and unreasonable in proportion to the substantive award. (Note: corpus jurisdiction tag 'us' is incorrect; this is a Kenyan decision.)
