Topics covered:
00:10 - What is criminal procedure law? Schedule 1 - 7 offences.
00:54 - Bail application
02:35 - Criminal matter process

CRIMINAL MATTER PROCESS:
1. The process begins with a pre-trial criminal procedure. This involves the following:

• exercise of powers and the vindication of individual rights – there needs to be a balance between society’s demands in bringing the
offender to justice, and to uphold the personality and property rights of the individual (the right to dignity, privacy and freedom).
The law lays down strict rules with regard to the circumstances in which a limitation of these rights will be permissible to investigate crime or to bring offenders to justice;

• securing the attendance of the accused at the trial – by way of summons/written notice to appear/an indictment/the arrest of the accused;

• interrogation, interception and establishing the bodily features of a person;

• search and seizure – the Criminal Procedure Act makes provision for when it is permissible to search and seize property;

• bail and other forms of release – when bail is granted an accused who is in custody shall be released upon payment of, or the furnishing of a guarantee to pay;

• pre-trial examinations – if the decision has been taken to charge the accused in the regional court or to indict him before the High
Court, the accused is to be brought before a magistrate’s court and required to plead to the charges, or that a preparatory examination be held;

2. the trial:
• indictments and charge sheets – everyone has the right of access to any information held by the state and any other information that
is held by another person and that is required for the exercise of protection of any rights;

• arraignment and plea of an accused – the calling upon the accused to appear, informing him of the crime charged against
him, demanding whether he is guilty or not guilty, and the entering of his plea;

3. the sentence:
Determining a suitable sentence is one of the most difficult tasks a judicial officer has to face. The judicial officer has to make a value
judgment and determine how much weight every fact and factor should be afforded.

4. Post-verdict and post-sentence remedies:
• Appeal;
• Review;
• Mercy, indemnity and free pardon.

BAIL APPLICATION:
There are three different forms of bail:

1. Police bail – this enables an arrested person to apply for bail at the police station before the expiration of 48 hours and before the first
appearance in court. Police bail is granted by any police official of the rank of inspector and above and is for minor offences such as
theft under R2 500, common assault or possession of dagga less than 115 grams.

2. Prosecutor bail – this can be applied for before the arrested person has to make his/her first appearance in court. This type of bail can
also be applied for while the arrested person is at the police station but to a prosecutor who has been authorised by the Director of
Public Prosecutions to grant bail for more serious offences. Prosecutor bail is mainly for offences listed in schedule 7 of the Criminal Procedure Act.

3. Bail applications in court – this form of bail can be applied for at the first court appearance or at any time before the accused is
convicted, if the interests of justice permit.

THE BAIL APPLICATION PROCESS:
• when an accused is arrested he/she is informed of his/her rights by the law enforcement officer;

• the police will give the accused the opportunity to call someone;

• the accused should call a criminal defence bail attorney who will initiate and manage the bail application procedure;

• the criminal defence attorney negotiates the bail price.

When considering a bail application the court will need to determine whether the accused is a danger to the public, is likely to attempt to flee, will intimate witnesses or jeopardize the trial.

If the accused is released on bail he/she will receive a written notice that will inform him/her where the court is, the date and time to
appear in court, and the conditions of the bail. Upon payment of the set bail amount the accused will be given a receipt which will be
needed after the trial to get a refund of the money depending on the outcome of the trial.

CRIMINAL LAW
Criminal law focuses on the principles of law according to which criminal liability (guilt or innocence) is determined.

Requirements for criminal liability:

How to report & winding up a deceased estate?
Upon the death of a person, the estate must be reported by an
interested party to Master’s Office in which jurisdiction the deceased normally lived, within 14 days.

The reporting documents will differ slightly depending on the value of the estate and the type of appointment required.
If the value of the estate exceeds R250 000, letters of executorship must be issued and the full process prescribed by the Administration of Estates Act must be followed.

View video if the estate is under R250 000.00 and for additional process info.

The Companies Act 71 of 2008 provides for two types of companies:
• a profit company; and
• a non-profit company.
Download FREE Inland revenue letter here : https://www.lawyersezyfind.co.za/Legal-Contract-Download.aspx/Letter-to-Inland-Revenue-for-a-section-21-company?key=Mzky

An non-profit company is described in section 1 of the Companies Act as a company: –

‘(a) incorporated for a public benefit or other object as required by item 1(1) of Schedule 1; and

(b) the income and property of which are not distributable to its incorporators, members, directors, officers or persons related to any of them except to the extent permitted by item 1(3) of Schedule 1’.

A non-profit company (“NPC”) does not have as its aim the making of profit, and must be established for a public benefit or for a purpose relating to one or more cultural or social activities, or communal or group interests.

An NPC must use all its income and property to advance and aid its stated non-profit objectives as set out in its Memorandum of Incorporation (“MOI”) - the founding document of the NPC. This means that the NPC may not directly or indirectly pay any portion of its income or transfer any of its property to a founder, director or member - except as reasonable remuneration for goods delivered or services provided to the company, or as reimbursement for expenses incurred in advancing the NPC’s objectives, and so on.

At the dissolution of an NPC, the net value of the company must go to another NPC which has the same or similar objectives as the dissolving NPC (as determined by its members or directors in its MOI) - or if such is not determined in its MOI then as determined by a court.

NPCs used to be incorporated in terms of section 21 of the old Companies Act 61 of 1973 (“old Act”) and was generally known as Section 21 Companies. The Section 21 Company was believed to be a public company with the relevant provisions applicable to public companies also being applied to Section 21 Companies under the old Act.

Certificate for Unsecured Debenture
A debenture is a loan agreement in writing between a borrower and a lender that is registered with CIPC. It gives the lender security over the borrower’s assets.

Download Unsecured Debenture here : https://www.lawyersezyfind.co.za/Legal-Contract-Download.aspx/Certificate-for-unsecured-debenture?key=Njc4

Typically, a debenture is used by a bank, factoring company or invoice discounter to take security for their loans. A debenture can only be taken on a limited company or limited liability partnership, it cannot be taken over a sole trader or standard partnership.

A director who has advanced or lent money into their own company could take a debenture to secure the loan. A private lender can also take a debenture.
