In the above matter the High Court of South Africa, Gauteng Local Division Johannesburg, ordered that:
All practitioners (attorneys and advocates) who applied for admission by 31 October 2018 can proceed to have their applications heard under the provisions of the legislation regulating attorneys and advocates prior to the LPA. Judgment in respect of the remaining issues dealt with in the matter has been reserved. The judgment does not assist candidate attorneys who had to re-write board examinations, the results for which were only released in December 2018 (who would have been eligible for admission by 31 October 2018 but for the compulsory re-write).
