dc.concourt.synopsis Application for leave to appeal against a judgment of the Supreme Court of Appeal. The applicants argued that the municipality owed them a constitutional duty to account in a dispute concerning the imposition of certain levies. The Court held that the scope for an independent constitutional duty to account did not exist in this matter. There was nothing to prevent the applicants from claiming the alleged overpayments in the normal course of litigation. The Court held that all of the information that the applicants would need was already available to them or could be obtained through the discovery and other mechanisms available to litigants in civil proceedings. The applicants failed to establish reasonable prospects of success on a constitutional issue. Leave to appeal was refused with costs. Judgment: Froneman J (unanimous).
