Abstract

During the past year, various amendments to the Rules of the Supreme Court of Appeal, the Uniform Rules of Court and the magistrates’ courts rules came into operation. The COVID-19 situation continued to require the publication of various practice directives dealing with court operations during the pandemic by heads of court. The superior courts delivered judgments regarding various aspects of civil procedure. In some judgments trite principles were reiterated; in others new principles in respect of, among others, the application of rules of court were laid down. During this period, a number of articles dealing with different aspects of civil procedure were published.
