The case in which the son of former Minister Joseph Kamotho is charged with forging a medical report in succession row will be heard on March 1, 2023.
When the parties appeared before Milimani Magistrate Ben Mark for the mention, he fixed a hearing date for March next year.
In the case, Charles Githii, the son of former KANU cabinet minister Joseph Kamotho, has been charged in a multimillion-dollar succession dispute with forging a medical report in the name of his sister Maryanne Nyokabi.
According to court documents, Githii went to an unknown location in Nairobi in October 2015 and obtained a forged report signed by a doctor named Mucheru Wang'ombe.
Githii faces a second count that, in November 2020, with intent to defraud, he uttered the forged medical report he obtained from Dr Wang'ombe.
He has since denied the charges and is out on bail.
In November, the High court judge handling their succession case directed the family to file their proposals in court on how the Sh260 million estate should be distributed.
Kamotho died on December 6, 2014, and is survived by his wife Eunice Kamotho and four children — Charles Gathii, James Mwai, Marianne Nyokabi and David Waweru.
Gathii and Mwai want their mother to be the administrator of the estate but Nyokabi and Waweru have objected.
Eunice has since accused her two children- Nyokabi and Waweru -of hatching a plot to deny her a chance to administer the estate.
But the two say they want independent administrators to manage their late father’s wealth.
