Thahameso Ntswanatsatsi Thusanang Taxi Association and Another v Qwaqwa United Taxi Association (5204/2013) [2014] ZAFSHC 100 (26 June 2014)
Court
Free State High Court, Bloemfontein
Case number
5204/2013
Judge
L J Lekale
The court held that written reasons for judgment are a jurisdictional fact for an application for leave to appeal. In this matter, no written reasons had been furnished, and the applicants were out of time for requesting reasons. The application for leave to appeal was therefore premature and could not be entertained. The court emphasized that entertaining such an application would allow parties to circumvent the rules regarding the time limits for requesting reasons and applying for leave to appeal. Accordingly, the application for leave to appeal was struck off the roll.
