Jhb Magistrate Court

Maintenance officers at this court is not only lazy and incompetent and leaves people sitting for hours without assisting. COMPLAINANTS ARE NOW TOLD TO TYPE ON THE MAINTENANCE OFFICER'S COMPUTERS IF THEY REQUIRE LETTERS AS PROO THAT NO MAINTENCE WAS RECEIVED FOR A MINOR CHILD FOR SCHOOLS purposes. THE MAINTENANCE OFFICER WILL SIGN AND STAMP the letter only One can only assume that they are not computer literate or unable to compose letters. This is very sad. What are they employing as Maintence Officers. Proof of letter and signage is attached. Another rude and incompetent maintenance officer is Mr Scheepers. This has to be addressed urgently. Children are suffering and nothing is being done.

Very efficient place. Good service. Only problem outside with parking.

I was there to help a friend and as sat in the corridor I witnessed how the judge was controlled by the corrupt prosecutor young guy , who stood in the hall way with a SAPS member and a legal aid lady counting a cash payment handed over to make sure that the judge can take the charge sheet and grant bail even though bail was denied... I then decided to ask if they could help me out and I would pay them aswell and after waiting for just under an hour the prosecutor came to collect the details of the person I was there for and said he guarantees bail and the docket will be burnt so they can throw the case out all I have to do is give them R4000 and they will make sure the judge has no say in the decision and when I said I wouldn't be able to afford the amount they said they will teach me how important it is to get the money because they have all the authority to send anyone to prison until they get a trial....its almost a month since the bail application was denied and they called me to ask if I was able to find the R4000 or should they delay the process for yet another month....court room 4 is extremely corrupt and unjust

Not too bad you've just got to have PATIENCE

The staff's attitude leaves a lot to be desired... You'll be left utterly dissapointed...

Good morning and thanks for

Employees are very unhelpful, with a bad attitude. Been told to come back the next day after waiting 5hours. Very unprofessional and causes alot of problems.
