Was it Even His Signature? How to Overturn a Fraudulent Will
Read more: https://www.kclaw.co.za/was-it-even-his-signature-how-to-overturn-a-fraudulent-will/

It’s unfortunately all too common a tale. Out of the blue, an older person, rendered vulnerable by age or illness, acquires a new “friend”. Before anyone in the family realises what’s going on, their loved one has died, and the fraudster claims to be sole heir in terms of a last-minute will.

No surprise then that our courts must often determine whether a deceased person’s last will was tainted by incapacity, undue influence, fraud, or even forgery. The sad tale of a 90-year-old man who left behind two conflicting wills is a good example of how our courts approach these situations.

Renegotiating After You’ve Signed: The Email That Ended a Property Sale

After their bond was withdrawn, the buyers were given time to arrange new finance. Instead, one of them emailed the conveyancer saying they would only apply for another bond after the seller repaired an alleged defect or agreed to reduce the price.

The seller understood this to mean that the buyers would not proceed on the terms they had already accepted. She cancelled the sale, and the High Court agreed that she was entitled to do so. The buyers lost the sale and the money already paid and faced further financial consequences.

Can Your Complex Cut Off Your Biometric Access Over Unpaid Levies?

Your fingerprint suddenly stops working at the estate gate. You can still get home, but only through the visitors’ lane. Can your homeowners’ association cut off your biometric access because it says you owe levies?

A recent High Court judgment says an association cannot use biometric access to enforce an alleged default. The case also confirms that biometric access to your home can be protected as part of your possession of the property.

Can Your Neighbour’s CCTV Camera Point into Your Property?
Read more: https://www.kclaw.co.za/can-your-neighbours-cctv-camera-point-into-your-property/

Home security cameras are increasingly common, but protecting your property does not give you an unrestricted right to monitor your neighbours.

A dispute between Cape Town neighbours has clarified where the line may be drawn. The bottom line? CCTV surveillance of a neighbour’s private spaces can infringe their constitutional rights to privacy and dignity.

Better Late Than Never: Marriage Law Drags Itself into the 21st Century
Read more: https://www.kclaw.co.za/better-late-than-never-marriage-law-drags-itself-into-the-21st-century/
For decades, South African law used the husband’s legal home at the time of marriage to decide which country’s law governed a couple’s financial and property rights when they had ties to more than one country.

A recent Western Cape High Court judgment declared that rule unconstitutional and introduced a gender-neutral framework for deciding which country’s law applies. Courts elsewhere in the country are not bound by the judgment but are likely to follow it.

Do You Really Need 6 Types of Will?
Read more: https://www.kclaw.co.za/national-wills-week-do-you-really-need-6-types-of-will/

At the heart of your estate planning is your will (“Last Will and Testament”). Without it, you lose your right to choose your heirs, to choose the executor of your estate, and to choose who will look after your children and your family trusts when you die.

But there’s lots of online chatter about other types of “will” such as offshore wills, digital wills, business wills, ethical wills and living wills. What are they and do you really need to put them all in place?

Can Family Conflict Kibosh a Trust?
Read more: https://www.kclaw.co.za/can-family-conflict-kibosh-a-trust/

When a trust's founder dies, families often assume that whatever they said they wanted will be honoured, even if the trust deed was never changed to reflect it.

A recent Supreme Court of Appeal decision confirms that this is not how trusts work. What governs a trust after the founder's death is the trust deed itself, not the wishes they expressed at family meetings in their final years.

Whistleblower Reinstated: Protected Disclosures Act to the Rescue
Read more: https://www.kclaw.co.za/whistleblower-reinstated-protected-disclosures-act-to-the-rescue/

The “Whistleblower’s Act”, formally known as the Protected Disclosures Act, encourages employees to expose corruption, criminal activity and other wrongdoing in the workplace.

But what protections does the Act actually give whistleblowers. And what steps should employers and employees take to ensure they comply with it? We’ll answer all of these questions in the context of a recent Labour Court decision to reinstate a manager who was ostensibly fired for breaching ICT policies.
