Which Court Has Jurisdiction Over Your Matter?
The correct legal venue depends on the physical location of the leased property and the legal complexity of the dispute:
- Randburg Magistrates Court: Handles residential and sectional title evictions across Sandton, Bryanston, Fourways, Randburg, and northern Johannesburg suburbs.
- Johannesburg Central Magistrates Court: Covers matters in Johannesburg CBD, Braamfontein, southern and eastern suburbs.
- South Gauteng High Court: Exercises concurrent jurisdiction, hearing large-scale commercial property ejectments, complex farm occupier disputes, or opposed multi-party residential applications.
City of Johannesburg Section 4(2) Requirements
Section 4(2) of the PIE Act requires statutory notices to be served on the local municipality.
In Johannesburg, notices must be properly served at the municipal offices at Thuso House / Metro Centre in Braamfontein. This triggers statutory housing assessments. Ensuring the Sheriff files complete returns of service prevents costly postponements on the hearing day.
