PVL2601 RECORD STUDY UNIT 2 20220812 101231 Meeting Recording

At the end of this study unit, students must be able to...
- distinguish between the nature and consequences of void, voidable, and putative marriages, and
- discuss the consequences of a voidable civil marriage and a putative marriage.
Kindly note that in your prescribed textbook page 40 and study guide page 16 Zulu v Zulu is discussed under putative marriages, the Kwazulu-Natal Divison of the High Court held that a putative marriage cannot be in community of property if either of the parties is a spouse in an existing civil marriage in community of property. However, in MS v Executor, Estate Late NS 2021 (6) SA 483 (FB) the Free State Division of the High Court declined to follow Zulu v Zulu.
NB: See Tutorial Letter 102
Best wishes with your studies.
