by Dina Raphaël

With regard to our In Fact and In Law Express newsletter of July 2012, entitled ‘‘AMF Investigations: The duty to answer an investigator and his jurisdiction to rule on objections’’, please be informed that, on December 20, 2012, the Supreme Court dismissed Fournier’s application for leave¹ to appeal a Court of Appeal decision², which convicted Fournier of an offence under section 195(4) SA because of his refusal to testify whereas lower courts acquitted him.

The Court of Appeal judgment is now final.
