I asked and I am told they have pushed them until next year between March and April,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Maraga however said in order to increase operational efficiencies and improve access to justice for all Kenyans, the institution has employed Alternative Dispute Resolution Mechanisms such as the establishment of a Court Annexed Mediation programme which now covers court stations in 12 counties across the country.<\/p>\n<p>He stated that a total of 2,905 matters referred to Court Annexed Mediation out of which 1,879 were processed and concluded.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe programme is already adding greatly to our speed of justice delivery. During the reporting period, for example, a total of 2,905 matters were referred to CAM out of which 1,879 were processed,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the relatively short time of its implementation, the CAM programme has facilitated the release of approximately Sh7.2 billion in funds that were tied in litigation.<\/p>\n<p>These early and positive results demonstrate the great potential of that programme to assist in addressing the perennial challenge of the rising workload in our courts and facilitate the release of funds tied in litigation to the economy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The CJ further stated that the institution is doing its best to ensure a significant reduction of case backlog.<\/p>\n<p>He\u00a0pleaded for more funding to facilitate use of technology in handling some of the cases.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the end of the year under review (2018\/2019), we reduced the backlog of cases which are five years or older from 170,186 to 38,781. This is important because one of the most critical goals the Judiciary had set for itself in the SJT is to drastically reduce or eliminate from our system, cases which are older than five years,\u201d the CJ said.<\/p>\n<p>Maraga announced that case backlog of all cases stood at 341,056 compared to 372,928 in the previous year (2017\/ 2018) which represented a nine per cent reduction in the overall case backlog in the Judiciary.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally,\u00a0the rate at which cases were filed as compared to the rate at which they were resolved stood at 97 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>The Land and Environment Court which has the exclusive first instance jurisdiction in arguably the most important economic resource in Kenya \u2013 land \u2013 has a backlog of 17,833, the report released Thursday indicated.<\/p>\n<p>Employment and Labour Relations Court has a backlog of 13,264 cases, the Magistracy recording the highest backlog at 425,161.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NAIROBI, Kenya, Jan 23 \u2013 Land and Environment Courts are fully booked until March 2021, Chief Justice David Maraga announced on Thursday while calling for urgent measures to fund the Judiciary\u2019s bid to employ more judges and magistrates.
