Ep #12: "A Constitutional Duty to Tweet" w/ Adv Jatheen Bhima

Just Us Under a Tree

Elisha is finally back! He's joined by Tanveer, Jason and Johan and they start by discussing the latest developments at the Constitutional Court including who is acting on the bench, whether DCJ Zondo is on leave, the type of matters the CC is hearing, and the apex court in the Zoom era. Then, a quick preview of the upcoming Sithole matter before recapping the Court's first arguments over Zoom: first, whether the Public Protector can subpoena the Commissioner of SARS; second, the Centre for Child Law's challenge to section 10 of the Births and Deaths Registration Act with Advocate Jatheen Bhima (who argued the matter for CCL). Finally, judgment recaps: Jason explains the recent Chisuse judgment on citizenship for persons born outside of South Africa to South African parents, Tanveer explains the latest round of Tasima messiness, and Johan revels in the Penwill dispute over legal costs. Final mix and master by Riley Pam-Grant.
