Khan v Khan (Ex tempore) (021816/2025) [2025] ZAGPPHC 256 (24 February 2025)

The court found that the applicant failed to meet the threshold for urgency as required by Rule 6(12). The urgency relied upon was self-created and not objectively justified. The applicant did not provide sufficient reasons to demonstrate that substantial redress could not be obtained at a hearing in due course. Consistency in applying the rules of court is essential for legal certainty. As the requirements for urgent relief were not satisfied, the application was struck off the roll for lack of urgency.

  • Rule 6 12 Urgency
  • Condonation
  • Service And Form Requirements
  • Substantial Redress
  • Self Created Urgency
