Jaftha v Schoeman and Others, Van Rooyen v Stoltz and Others is an important case in South African civil procedure and property law, decided in the Constitutional Court of South Africa on 8 October 2004. The court held unanimously that the Magistrates' Courts Act, 1944 was unconstitutional insofar as it did not provide for judicial oversight over sales in execution against the immovable property of judgment debtors. In a judgment written by Justice Yvonne Mokgoro, the court found that sales in execution limited the debtor's constitutional right to housing and that the prevailing execution scheme was overbroad because it permitted such sales to proceed even in circumstances where they limited that right unjustifiably.
