Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr advised the City of Cape Town on a challenge to the authorisation of the establishment of a regional landfill site.

Delinquency: The corporate reckoning of directors
The Supreme Court of Appeal’s (SCA) decision in Msibithi Investments and Others v African Legend Investment and Others ZASCA 61 is a crisp reminder that the ability to declare a director delinquent in terms of section 162 of the Companies Act 71 of 2008 (Companies Act) has real teeth.
