Facts of the Case
Background
Applicant, a retrenched employee, sought to compel transfer of a house that formed part of his retrenchment package. An arbitrator had awarded that retrenched employees could purchase their houses at 10 times their retrenchment packages, but when quantified, the value was nil. A previous court had declared a transfer based on this award null and void.
