The appeal is before us with the leave of the trial magistrate. The appeal was initially enrolled for a hearing before two Judges. Subsequent to a discussion held by the panel, the court was re-constituted and the matter was argued before three judges as contemplated in section 14(3) of the Superior Courts Act 10 of 2013. [2] The record reflects that 105 persons were initially charged with contravention of section 12(1)(a), 12(1)(e) and 12(1)(g) of the RGA but were subsequently charged only with contravention of section 12(1)(e) of the RGA. Further particulars to the charge sheet were requested and were subsequently supplied. Charges were withdrawn against 22 accused persons and the trial proceeded only in respect of the 94 appellants.

[2] I indicated that the reasons for my orders would follow in due course. These are my reasons. For the sake of convenience one set of reasons is provided as the issue in both applications is exactly the same. [3] The demise of the Volksblad, an Afrikaans daily newspaper that was distributed in the Free State and Northern Cape for over a century, could not be foreseen when the applicant issued the two liquidation applications on 10 March 2020. [4] The last edition of Volksblad, in printed or hard-copy format, appeared on Saturday, 8 August 2020. For about a month before this date readers of the newspaper were alerted on a regular basis of the decision to cease publication in printed format. [5] On 6 August 2020 both applications for provisional liquidation orders were heard by Jordaan J. The applications were fiercely contested by the two respondents, but eventually the standard orders applicable in this division were issued.

  • 117/2014 in the Review Between: the STATE And
    IN THE HIGH COURT OF SOUTH AFRICA FREE STATE DIVISION, BLOEMFONTEIN Review No: 117/2014 In the review between: THE STATE and LABLIA JONATHAN MOLOI _________________________________________________________ CORAM: KRUGER et C.J. MUSI, JJ _________________________________________________________ JUDGMENT: KRUGER, J _________________________________________________________ DELIVERED ON: 12 JUNE 2014 _________________________________________________________ REVIEW JUDGMENT _________________________________________________________ [1] This is a special review in terms of section 204 of Act 51 of 1077. The accused appeared before the magistrate at Harrismith on 10 June 2014 on two charges of housebreaking with intent to steal and theft. The accused was legally represented and pleaded not guilty to both counts. At the end of the proceedings on 10 June, after the evidence of three witnesses had been led, when postponing the case, the presiding magistrate noticed that he had done a formal bail application in this matter on 17 April 2014. During that application certain information, pertaining inter alia to whether the accused had previous convictions, was placed on record. In line with the decisions in S v Bruinders 2012 (1) SACR 256 (WCC) and S v Nkuna 2013 (2) SACR 541 (GNP) the magistrate believes that under the circumstances he should request this court to set aside the proceedings before him and order that the trial start de novo before another magistrate. [2] The magistrate is correct. There appears to be some prejudice to the state because three witnesses will have to testify again. There is also some prejudice to the accused because the proceedings on 10 June 2014 have to be set aside. It is however important that justice be seen to be done, and that there should be no perception that the presiding officer could be influenced by previous knowledge relating to the accused.
