QUESTION 1
You should study lessons 1-3 before attempting this question
Read the set of facts below and provide a response on the question that follows. NB. Your
response must be presented in the form of an essay. Use the rubric provided for this assignment
to guide you in the planning of your essay.
Y, a female minor student at Smarties Junior Academy in Pretoria, was born with a congenital
cardiac failure that imperils other vital organs. The result is that she does not enjoy the normal
amenities of life and is often sickly. She believes that her mother’s obstetrician, Doctor X, ought
to have diagnosed this prenatal ailment and advised her mother accordingly. Her mother, Mrs B,
confides in you that had she been advised correctly, she would have terminated the pregnancy.
Both these ladies approach you in your capacity as an attorney and request that you file claims,
on their behalf, for damages against Doctor X. Discuss the possibilities of them successfully
lodging a wrongful life and or a wrongful birth claim in terms of the South African law of damages.
Use relevant case law and other legal sources to support your argument. Please note that you are
expected to discuss both these claims.
