The High Court dealt with four linked applications between liquidators of V&H Bono Furniture Manufacturers and the City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality. The court rescinded the earlier order of 23 April 2024, declared the City to have been in contempt of that order for the period from 4 June 2024 until the date of judgment, and made directions about further affidavits and interim restraint on debt collection measures.
This appears to concern municipal billing, section 118 clearance figures, contempt proceedings and rescission in an insolvency context.
