Administrative Law [2023] ZAGPJHC 260

Moodley v Minister of Justice and Correctional Services and Others (21/53385)

Moodley v Minister of Justice and Correctional Services and Others (21/53385) [2023] ZAGPJHC 260 (24 March 2023)

The court found that the respondents' failure to provide certain directives and regulations referenced in the Parole Board Manual did not amount to contempt of the 15 December 2022 order, as these documents were not specifically mentioned in the order and the breach, if any, was technical rather than wilful. The absence of a new social worker's report did not constitute non-compliance, as the order only required necessary reports to be completed, and the applicant had already received the updated report. The court held that the parole hearing could proceed, provided the applicant is given imm…

Solidarity obo Roos v South African Police Service and Others (JS1043/12) [2015] ZALCJHB 416 (23 November 2015)

The court found that the respondents had complied with the Order of 22 April 2014. There was no third funded Colonel post in the internal audit section of Crime Intelligence at the relevant time; the documentary evidence relied upon by the applicant reflected unfunded posts, which could not be filled. The respondents placed Roos in a comparable internal audit position at Head Office, retaining his rank and remuneration, and provided him with duties consistent with his experience. The court rejected the applicant's interpretation that the Commissioner was obliged to create or transfer posts sp…
