They say every case is an opportunity to uphold truth and fairness, painting a masterpiece of justice.
That is what the justice sector has been busy with - painting a masterpiece of justice.
From closing a custodial file to imposing punishments on convicts, these are key cases this week:
Dispute over Njiru land still ongoing
A week after the Environment and Land Court ruled that former Starehe MP Gerishon Kirima was the rightful owner of the Njiru land, an Italian has moved to court seeking a review of the judgement.
In an affidavit filed on Tuesday, Bernado Vicezo De Mas said the land belongs to his late father Dominico De Masi and that he had crucial evidence and information to support the ownership.
"That it is in the interest of justice and fairness that the honourable court order for a review of its judgement dated October 23, 2023, accord itself an opportunity to be presented with facts and evidence and evidence in my possession to enable itself to reach a fair and just determination," the affidavits read in part.
He claimed that the court had been presented with fake documents and that the Kirimas obtained the judgment through fraud.
Pastor Ezekiel Odero's custodial file closed
Pastor Ezekiel got a reprieve on Tuesday after the Shanzu Law Courts closed his custodial file and returned his Sh1.5m bail fee.
A custodial file is a file seeking to detain an accused person.
Its closure however does not mean that the case is closed, rather that there is an ongoing inquiry on the matter.
Chief Magistrate Joe Omido said having considered both the prosecution and the defence applications, he had no choice but to discharge Ezekiel.
"Having considered the record in its entirety I hereby proceed to discharge the respondent under orders of this court issued on May 2 and 4, the cash bail of Sh1.5 million deposited to be released to the depositor, this file is now closed," Omido ruled.
The court heard that Pastor Ezekiel was being investigated for alleged murder, aiding and abetting suicide, abduction, radicalisation, genocide, crimes against humanity, child cruelty, fraud and money laundering.
Police investigators first arraigned the pastor at the Shanzu court in late April.
They have since then been seeking more days to conduct investigations but have never produced a report on the same.
Boniface Mwangi sentenced for contempt of court
Human Rights Activist Boniface Mwangi was on Wednesday sentenced to two months in jail with an alternative of Sh300,000 fine for contempt of court.
Machakos High Court had found him guilty of the offence and invited him to show cause why he should not be sent to civil jail.
Mwangi also failed to appear in court twice in a defamation case where he was sued by Tourism CS Alfred Mutua who at the time was Machakos Governor.
Through his lawyer, Mutua moved to court saying Mwangi had expressly breached and acted in violation of a court order prohibiting him from publishing in the print, and electronic or online media defamatory material concerning the CS.
Parties in Kibaki estate row to settle dispute out of court
On Monday, the court was informed that the row between the family of former President Mwai Kibaki and two people claiming to be his children will be settled out of court.
Justice Eric Ogolla heard that the parties have already initiated talks to resolve the matter.
Lawyers representing Kibaki's family asked the court to grant them more time before reporting back on the way forward.
Those seeking a share of the late Kibaki's empire are Jacob Ocholla who claims to be the former president's firstborn son and a woman codenamed JNL.
Justice Ogola gave the parties until December 18 to mediate on the matter.
