Interesting Judgment: Reserve Bank & Another v JWE Maddocks & Another
01 February 2023
Members,
Please find attached a judgment handed down by the SCA on the 23rd of January 2023.
The Court found that a forfeiture order issued in terms of Regulation 22B after the winding-up of a company is not nullified by the winding–up order. The issuance of the blocking order and forfeiture order does not render the South African Reserve Bank a creditor of the insolvent company, the forfeiture order was found to be competent.
Kindly sent to us by Haroon Laher of Fasken Inc.
Take care
