Facts of the Case

Background

Amcast (Private) Limited was placed under corporate rescue on 19 October 2022 with Obert Madondo appointed as Corporate Rescue Practitioner. After delays due to litigation challenging his appointment, he received his certificate of appointment on 29 April 2024. The respondents denied him access to company premises on two occasions, prompting this urgent application for an interdict.
