The Constitutional Court has ruled that a spouse cannot enter into antenuptial contract in a bid to override their initial and existing marriage property regime, whether it be civil or customary marriage. The court decided to NOT uphold a decision by the High Court in Pretoria, to declare a section of the Recognition of Customary Marriages Act, unconstitutional. The matter stems from an opposed divorce between VVC and JRM who were married in community of property by way of customary law in 2011 and later entered into a civil marriage.
