Encroachment
This case has been set down for hearing which means that the Court office is advised that the parties are ready to proceed to a hearing. The protocol, in the court dealing with this type of case, is that when a case is set down the judge will list the matter for review before giving a hearing date. Currently M&EAB Council are waiting for the case to be listed for review and thereafter for hearing. Due to the pandemic the courts were closed for a period of time last year, causing a backlog of cases being worked through in terms of listing matters for reviews and hearings.
