Property law: legal framework and solutions

This decision sheds important light on your property rights. Here is what it changes for you.

The situation

In the courts of appeal listed in the order of 7 December 1967, the case management procedure is only applicable to proceedings in which the notice of appeal was filed after 1 January 1968. An appeal lodged on 11 July 1967 before one of the said courts is therefore governed by the former procedural rules.

What the law says

This decision confirms the fundamental principles of property law.

Key points to remember

• Strictly comply with the statutory time limits for appeals
• Keep all your supporting documents (title deeds, instruments, correspondence)
• Plan ahead: preventive legal advice always costs less than litigation
