2. Further directions were given by this court on the date of the judgment directing parties to file supplementary submissions.

3. The Appellant did file its submissions. There was no appearance nor submissions filed on the part of the Respondent though duly served with the mention notice and the supplementary submissions by the Appellant.

4. The Appellant submitted that as at 31

st

March, 1997, the Respondent had spent Kshs. 100,223.25 on the credit card as reflected on the statement at page 81 of the record of Appeal in Civil Appeal 186 of 2012. That for the period September 1997 untill April 1998, bulletin fees of Kshs. 3,915 were incurred as reflected at pages 87 to 94 of the record of Appeal in Civil Appeal 186 of 2012. Further that legal fees of Kshs. 20,000 was charged in May 1998, as reflected at page 95 of the record of Appeal in Civil Appeal 186 of 2012.

5. In total, Kshs. 100,223.25 + Kshs. 3,915 + Kshs. 20,000 = Kshs. 124, 138.25. Less Kshs. 20,000, Kshs. 124.138.25-kshs. 20,000 = 104,138.25.

6. The Appellant prays that this court finds that Kshs. 104,138.25 is the principal sum. I have perused the record and confirmed that the calculations as tabulated herein by the Appellant reflect the true position. I therefore enter judgment for the Appellant against the Respondent for the Principal Sum of Kshs. 104,138.25. Interests shall apply as per the judgment herein.
