Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>In a ruling handed down earlier this month, the Johannesburg High Court declared Brink\u2019s appointment as city manager unconstitutional and invalid.<\/p>\n

The Johannesburg High Court has dismissed the City of Joburg\u2019s leave to appeal a decision that invalidated the appointment of Floyd Brink as city manager.<\/p>\n

In a ruling handed down earlier this month, the same court declared Brink\u2019s appointment unconstitutional and invalid.<\/p>\n

The contention is that Brink was appointed to the position in February, without the necessary vetting measures.<\/p>\n

The Democratic Alliance (DA) in Joburg, which launched the application against Brink\u2019s appointment, has welcomed the high court\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n

DA caucus leader Belinda Kayser-Echeozonjoku: “Our goal has always been to safeguard the citizens of Johannesburg against the illegal conduct that this ANC-EFF-PA doomsday coalition is so well-known for. This underscores that commitment to constitutionality and the rule of law.”<\/p>\n
