On 25 May 2026, Heike Hartnick, an Associate based at our Garden Route branch, attended the Mayoral Breakfast hosted in Mossel Bay, featuring Executive Mayor Dirk Kotze and guest speaker, Mr Prince Mashele, Executive Director of the Centre for Politics and Research.

The event provided a valuable platform for open and constructive dialogue surrounding economic growth, development, and the future prospects of South Africa. Heike actively participated in the discussions and had the opportunity to engage further with Mr Mashele following the event.

BDP values opportunities that encourage meaningful engagement, the exchange of ideas, and conversations aimed at fostering growth and development within our communities and broader society.

Amendment Denied and Prescription Strikes: When Contract and Delict Create Different Debts

Amendments to pleadings are a common occurrence as parties navigate the rapids of litigation, but they are not without limits. The recent decision in Bobe v Van Der Walt (922/2023) [2026] ZANWHC 67 (17 March 2026) demonstrates the importance of properly pleading all applicable causes of action upon which you intend to rely, particularly in light of the risk of prescription.

In this case, the plaintiff instituted action in April 2023 following complications from a medical procedure performed in December 2020. Her original particulars of claim were framed in contract, alleging that the parties entered into a partly oral, partly written agreement and that the defendant failed to perform the procedure with reasonable professional skill, having acted negligently. The plaintiff claimed damages for past medical expenses, future medical expenses, past loss of earnings, and general damages.

When ADR Is Appropriate
ADR is often the preferred route when:

- Parties want a faster and more confidential resolution process.
- Relationships or reputations need to be preserved.
- The dispute involves technical or specialised issues best handled by experts.
- Court proceedings would be disproportionate to the value or nature of the dispute.
- Parties prefer flexible, creative solutions outside traditional court remedies.

Key Benefits of ADR
+ Faster, more cost-effective resolution compared to litigation.
+ Confidentiality and greater control over process and outcome.
+ Flexibility to reach practical outcomes beyond court-imposed remedies.
+ Preservation of commercial and personal relationships.
