Insolvency Law [2010] ZASCA 34

Duet and Magnum Financial Services CC (In Liquidation) v Koster (168/09)

Duet and Magnum Financial Services CC (In Liquidation) v Koster (168/09) [2010] ZASCA 34; 2010 (4) SA 499 (SCA) ; [2010] 4 All SA 154 (SCA) (29 March 2010)

The Court found the language of section 33(2)(a) to be clear and unambiguous, referring only to advances made 'in terms of this Act', i.e., the 2002 Act. The transitional provisions of the 2002 Act preserve the validity of acts done under the 1944 Act but do not extend the new statutory remedies to those advances.
