Fontana Di Purezza (Pty) Ltd ta Manzi Northcliff v Trustees for Time Being OG ZYZZYVA Trust (2024/120994) [2025] ZAGPJHC 154 (6 February 2025)

The court found that the applicant failed to establish true urgency, as the delay of two months before launching the application rendered the matter inappropriate for urgent relief. The applicant's concerns regarding the safety of the equipment and premises, as well as the alleged risk to assets, did not constitute objective urgency. The applicant's urgency was self-created. Furthermore, the proprietary and partnership disputes between the parties were complex and unsuitable for resolution in urgent motion proceedings.

Pollock NO and Others v Camara and Another (2395/2010)

Pollock NO and Others v Camara and Another (2395/2010) [2013] ZANWHC 35 (18 April 2013)
