Authoritative sources of South African law are those that have binding legal
force and must be followed by the courts and other legal bodies. These
include:
1. Legislation – Acts of Parliament, provincial legislation, and by-laws
passed by local authorities. For example, the South African
Constitution, which is the supreme law of the country and any law that
is inconsistent with it is invalid to the extent of the inconsistency.
2. Case law – Decisions made by higher courts that set a precedent for
lower courts to follow. For example, the case of S v Zuma (2009) in
which the Constitutional Court ruled that the National Prosecuting
Authority had acted unlawfully in withdrawing corruption charges
against Jacob Zuma.
On the other hand, sources with merely persuasive authority in South African
law are those that are not legally binding, but may still influence legal
decisions. These include:
