Civil Procedure [2025] ZAGPPHC 89

Jiang and Another v Standard Bank of South Africa Limited (A150/2023; 11829/2020)

Jiang and Another v Standard Bank of South Africa Limited (A150/2023; 11829/2020) [2025] ZAGPPHC 89 (31 January 2025)

The Court held that the dismissal of an exception is not appealable, as it is not a final decision and remains open for reconsideration at trial. The Supreme Court of Appeal and Constitutional Court have established that appealability is determined by the interests of justice, and the triad of principles in Zweni applies. The appellants failed to demonstrate any prejudice arising from the dismissal of the exception, and no distinguishing features or interests of justice warranted granting the appeal. The Court is bound by precedent and dismissed the appeal accordingly.
