HOA CREATES FALSE IMPRESSION THAT BUILDER MUST ACCREDIT<\/h2>\n

Emfuleni Golf Estate (Pty) Ltd v Vinbosch Construction CC (49544\/14) [2015] ZAGPPHC 610 (25 August 2015)<\/h3>\n

JAIL TERM FOR IGNORING INTERDICT TO STOP HARASSING SCHEME’S TRUSTEES<\/h2>\n

Body Corporate of El Sol v De Waal (69611\/2014) [2015] ZAGPPHC 614 (28 August 2015)<\/h3>\n

Living in close proximity to each other as sectional title schemes generally provide for, presents its own unique challenges. Confrontations between owners and the trustees of the body corporate are not uncommon. Courts can be approached for relief and where an owner makes himself guilty of acrimonious and disruptive behavior, a cost order and jail term can be the next step.<\/p>\n
