Best Answer

The provisions in the Constitution clearly spell out the composition of the judiciary. The judiciary authority is vested in the courts.

There are five types of courts:

1. The Constitutional Court (the highest court)

2. The Supreme Court of Appeal

3. The Supreme Courts

4. The Magistrate's Courts

5. Any other court of comparable status to the Supreme Courts or Magistrate's Courts which has been instituted or is recognised by an Act of Parliament

The superior courts of South Africa are:

  • The High Courts, which have jurisdiction over specific geographical areas and can hear all cases that arise in those areas. They also hear appeals from the magistrates' courts (inferior courts) within their areas.
  • The Supreme Court of Appeals, which hears appeals from the High Courts.
  • The Constitutional Court, which hears appeals on constitutional questions, either from the Supreme Court of Appeals or, in some cases, directly from a High Court.

The number of justices in each of the six courts vary, but to decide cases, the justices sit in panels of three. Below them are the 58 Superior Courts, one for each county.
