History
A periodical court to be held by the Magistrate of Kenhardt, was established at Pofadder on 28 September 1923 (Government Gazette No 1344 of 28 September 1923; Government Proclamation No 207 of 1923).
A Special Justice of the Peace was appointed at Pofadder on 26 February 1943 (Government Gazette No 3158 of 26 February 1943; Government Notice No 385 of 1943). According to the records the periodical court was presumably abolished in May 1960 and the post of the Special Justice of the Peace upgraded to that of Assistant Magistrate.
For the period February 1943 – May 1960 criminal and civil cases heard by the Magistrate of Kenhardt in the periodical court at Pofadder are filed with those heard by the Special Justice of the Peace of Pofadder.
