Lawyers are now threatening to boycott all court proceedings presided over by judges who have attained the retirement age of 70 years. The Chairperson of the Law Society of Kenya Eric Mutua says the boycott seeks to protest the latest move by a section of Judges who have moved to court to challenge their retirement. LSK made the threats as Homa Bay Town Member of Parliament Peter Kaluma called on the Judicial Service Commission to immediately stop salaries of all judges who have attained the age of 70 years, or else face action for overseeing the wastage of public resources.
