INSOLVENCY LAW
Insolvency in South African law refers to a status of diminished legal capacity, imposed by the courts on persons and legal entities (such as companies, partnerships, trusts, clubs, deceased estates) who are unable to pay their debts. Insolvency Law is guided by the Insolvency Act 24 of 1936, along with the Companies Act or Close Corporations Act, whichever is relevant.
