Can a university student be legally evicted from their residence or even from a makeshift shelter on campus – if they have nowhere else to go?

A recent High Court ruling involving the University of Cape Town (UCT) has brought this important question into focus, examining the relationship between constitutional housing rights and South Africa’s Prevention of Illegal Eviction (PIE) Act.

The judgment highlights why each person's circumstances matter when determining whether an eviction is lawful, particularly when homelessness is a real possibility.

“Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.”
— Ralph Waldo Emerson

Just as nature takes its time to bloom, life reminds us that good things cannot always be rushed. Trust the timing, embrace the journey, and give yourself permission to slow down and appreciate the beauty in the present moment.

May your Sunday be filled with peace, gratitude and time to enjoy the things that matter most.🌿🤍

Imagine being an owner in a residential estate, only to discover that your fingerprint and facial recognition access has been deactivated because of a dispute over outstanding levies.😳

That’s exactly what happened in a case involving a Midrand homeowners association (HOA), an owner and her tenants.

⚖️The High Court had to consider whether the HOA could suspend their biometric access while the alleged debt was still being disputed in court.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐮𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: recovering unpaid levies is one thing, but restricting access to a property as a way of enforcing payment is another.
