Kotze v Oosthuizen and Another (Appeal) (CIV APP FB11/2024) [2024] ZANWHC 285 (13 November 2024)

The court found that the order granted by the court a quo did not amount to a final eviction order. The appellant retained the right to occupy the residential portion of the farm pending the outcome of eviction proceedings, which had not yet been instituted. The order merely confirmed the respondents' rights as owners to access and use the property, excluding the residential area. The court held that PIE was not applicable at this stage, as no eviction proceedings were underway. The appeal was dismissed on the basis that the order was not final and did not affect the appellant's rights to occ…

Lynx Investment (Pty) Ltd and Another v Picnoord Kitchen (Pty) Ltd and Another (Application for Leave to Appeal) (2024/052019) [2024] ZAGPJHC 928 (18 September 2024)

The court found that the interim mandatory interdict reinstating the respondent was not appealable as it did not finally determine the rights of the parties nor dispose of substantial relief. The order was procedural, aimed at preserving or restoring the status quo pending the final determination of the parties' rights. The applicants' conduct in executing the judgment before the expiry of the period for noting an appeal deprived the respondents of the protection afforded by the suspension rule and amounted to interference with the administration of justice. The interests of justice did not d…
