Bwanya v The Master of the High Court, Cape Town and Others 2021 ZACC 51: This case involved a challenge to the provision in the Western Cape Maintenance of Surviving Spouses Act, which required that a person must be married "in community of property" to qualify for maintenance. The Constitutional Court ruled in favor of the applicants and struck down the provision as unconstitutional, thereby allowing those in "life partnerships" to claim maintenance benefits upon the death of their partner.
Jacobs v Road Accident Fund 2019 (2) SA 275 (GP): This case involved a claim for damages against the Road Accident Fund by a woman who was in a "life partnership" with a man who died in a car accident. The court found that the woman was entitled to claim damages as a "dependant" under the Road Accident Fund Act, which includes those who were in a "life partnership" with the deceased at the time of the accident. The judgment recognized the legal status of "life partnerships" and their entitlements under the Road Accident Fund Act.
