Moongate 125 (Pty) Ltd v Burger (2021/56009) [2023] ZAGPJHC 1009 (4 September 2023)
The court found that the applicant was never deregistered and remained a legal entity capable of contracting throughout the relevant period. The respondent's contention that the lease was void was rejected as unsustainable. The evidence established the existence and validity of the lease, the quantum of arrears, and the respondent's liability. The respondent's defences were bare denials without substantive evidence and were rejected. The applicant was entitled to payment of the arrears, interest, and attorney and client costs as per the lease agreement.
