Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality v VIP Consulting Engineers (Pty) Ltd (70201/2013) [2015] ZAGPPHC 776 (23 October 2015)
The court amended an earlier judgment to correct the party designations after an error affected taxation of costs; the substantive judgment remained unchanged.
S v Mohumi (CA 80/08) [2008] ZANWHC 40 (1 November 2008)
The court found that the presiding officer's reference to Part III of Schedule 2 was a genuine error and did not reflect his intention, as the evidence supported a conviction under Part I. The mistake was only realized after a reasonable time had lapsed, making it impossible for the magistrate to correct it under section 176 of the Criminal Procedure Act. The court therefore set aside the original conviction and substituted it with a conviction under Part I of Schedule 2 to Act 105 of 1977, and referred the matter back for sentencing.
