  Featured Act LSSA / Minister of Transport application commenced on 1 March 2010
   Featured Case Law Jenni Button restrained from using her own name
The Cape High Court granted an order on 19 September 2008 against the well-known South African clothing designer, Jenni Button, interdicting her from making use in any way of the trade name JENNI BUTTON for purposes of conducting business within the retail clothing trade in South Africa. She was also directed to pay the costs of the application.

The High Court actually dealt with two applications heard simultaneously :

• the first, by Jenni Button against Jenni Button (Pty) Limited (“the company”) and other entities, to transfer to her 30 % of the shares of the company; and

• the second, a counter-application by the company to restrain Jenni Button from using the trade name JENNI BUTTON for purposes of conducting business within the retail trade including as part of the domain name jennibutton.com. 		  Featured person Featured person
