Biographical history

In 1877 the South African Republic (Die Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek) established a High Court in Pretoria. After the Second Anglo-Boer War (South African War) it was renamed the Supreme Court of the Transvaal and in 1910 it became the Transvaal Local Division of the Supreme Court of South Africa. In terms of the 1996 South African Constitution its name was changed to High Court of South Africa, Transvaal Provincial Division. A further name change took place in 2009 when the court was renamed the North Gauteng High Court. Through restructuring in 2013 the North Gauteng High Court (situated in Pretoria) and South Gauteng High Court (situated in Johannesburg) became the Gauteng Division of the High Court of South Africa.

Archival history

The Supreme Court of South Africa, Transvaal Division transferred the dictabelts to the National Archives Repository in 1996. The dictabelts are an obsolete format and not accessible for research. In terms of a bilateral agreement between the DAC and the French Audio-Visual Institute in Paris these dictabelts were digitized between April 2014 and February 2017
