Tribunal takes no nonsense with director removals

Section 71 of the Companies Act 71 of 2008 (Act) sets out the process of removing a director of a company. Usually, subsections 3 and 4 would apply, which prescribe (i) a shareholder or board resolution authorising such removal; and (ii) prior notice of such resolution being given to the affected director. In the case of Howard N.O v Powell and Another (CT01682ADJ2024) COMPTRI 57 (24 May 2024), the Companies Tribunal (Tribunal) confirmed the process of the alternative mode of removal of a director when there are fewer than three directors in theboard.

Prince John and his barons, vexed by the actions of the outlaws, instructed the Sheriff of Nottingham to find the valuables and lock them in the castle before they were given away to the poor and lostforever.
