Employing intellectual property wisely : feature
Authors: Robyn-Leigh Merry and Muhammed VallySource: De Rebus 2013, pp 28 –29 (2013)More LessMost of us have seen the standard catch-all clauses in an employment contract whereby all forms of intellectual property (IP) are assigned to the employer. These clauses exist in various forms. Most of these forms are, on the face of it, fairly straightforward and understandable. However, such clauses are occasionally unenforceable and void.

Muslim spouses - are they 'equally' married? : feature
Author Sheri BreslawSource: De Rebus 2013, pp 30 –40 (2013)More LessThe fundamental shift that occurred when South Africa became a constitutional democracy in 1994 heralded changes in all areas of the law. Significant changes were made, and continue to be made, in family law. By way of example, the Recognition of Customary Marriages Act 120 of 1998 gave legal recognition to marriages contracted in terms of African customary laws, thereby protecting the spouses of these potentially polygamous unions.

Factual causation : one size does not fit all : feature
Author Jerome VeldsmanSource: De Rebus 2013, pp 32 –34 (2013)More LessThe judgment of Lee v Minister for Correctional Services 2011 (6) SA 564 (WCC) may be an opportunity missed by both the Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) (see Minister of Correctional Services v Lee 2012 (3) SA 617 (SCA)) and the Constitutional Court (CC) (see Lee v Minister of Correctional Services 2013 (2) SA 144 (CC)) to develop the South African law of delict with regard to factual causation. In the light of four starkly different judgments, namely, one in the High Court; one in the SCA; and two in the Constitutional Court (Nkabinde J and Cameron J), in relation to the same (mainly undisputed) facts, such development seems necessary or at least expedient.
