Lawyers, write for the tired judge at 9pm. Short paragraphs. Clear headings. One point per section.

A lawyer who is afraid to discuss fees before commencing work will eventually become a lawyer who is afraid to demand payment after completing the work.

Judges and Magistrates, you do not need written submissions to determine procedural applications like: joinder; amendment; leave for third party notice; and stay of a money decree pending appeal (appealfrom Chief Magistrate to High Court). That is intellectual laziness.
Write precise two pages, and timely rulings based upon the affidavit evidence, the Civil Procedure Rules, and one or two cases which everyone including Karen Nyamu knows. We are squandering precious judicial time on fetishes and trivialities.

Congratulations to Phoebe Okowa on your election as a Judge of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), after securing the requisite majority votes at both the United Nations General Assembly and the Security Council.
Your election is a moment of great pride for Kenya and a powerful affirmation of the depth of legal expertise, integrity and excellence that our country continues to contribute to the international community.
As you take up this distinguished responsibility, we wish you great success in discharging your mandate with diligence and in advancing the ICJ’s mission of upholding international law and promoting the peaceful resolution of disputes among nations.
Kenya is proud of you.

It is with immense pride that I welcome the election of Judge Phoebe Okowa to the International Court of Justice for the 2027-2036 term, and congratulate Judges from the UK, France, Singapore and Jordan on joining the Court. Judge Okowa’s election reflects the confidence of the international community in her capacity to serve the Court at this consequential time. We deeply aporeciate members of both the General Assembly and Security Council for their votes. We are equally indebted to Sierra Leone, Korea and Ecuador for withdrawing their candidatures after the third round and helping avoid a protracted electoral process. And to our Teams supporting this campaign- thank you all. Congratulations @Phoebe_Okowa. @ForeignOfficeKE @MusaliaMudavadi @WilliamsRuto

It’s a critical skill in a young man’s life to be able to realize when the tailor that carried him through a phase of his life won’t be sufficient to take him through the next and to act accordingly.
