The Western Cape High Court confirmed a rule nisi in a contempt and interdict application about a Mercedes-Benz motor vehicle and related conduct. The first respondent was declared in contempt of a 2021 Rule 43 order, and a 30 day imprisonment term was imposed but suspended for two years on stated conditions. The court also ordered restraints against the first and second respondents and made a costs order on the attorney and client scale.
This appears to concern contempt proceedings, interim maintenance-related relief, and interdicts involving vehicle possession and contact restrictions.
