Alysé Company (Pty) Ltd v Eden Island Management Association (MA 79 of 2025 (Arising out of CC 05 of 2025))

Alysé Company (Pty) Ltd v Eden Island Management Association (MA 79 of 2025 (Arising out of CC 05 of 2025)) [2025] SCSC 124 (9 September 2025)

The Applicant failed to satisfy the 'high degree of assurance' test required for a mandatory interim injunction. There is no clear evidence at this stage that the Respondent is contractually obligated to maintain the breakwater as a common area. The balance of convenience does not favour the Applicant, as damages are an adequate remedy and granting the injunction would effectively determine the substantive dispute before trial.

The court found that while there was a bona fide claim, there was insufficient evidence of a real risk that the Applicant would dissipate assets to defeat a judgment. A total freeze was disproportionate and could harm the Applicant's ability to operate and satisfy any judgment. The director was properly authorized to swear the affidavit. The order was varied to attach only the uncontested sum of SR 551,485.
