I am an adult who wants to resume using his mother's surname after it was changed to my father's surname at his insistence and under pressure by him, when I was about 21 years old. According to the Department of Home Affairs, the standard procedure for the surname change is to submit affidavits as follows: one from myself indicating the wish for surname change; one from my father granting permission to me to change the surname; and lastly one from my mother granting permission to change to her her surname. Unfortunately in my case, my father does not want to grant permission. So I require legal assistance to be able to change the surname.

I was charged with possession of live ammunition in November , but since I was charged I have never made a court appearance. When I tried to ask the investigating officer as to why charge me and not present me before the court, at first he said he was waiting for ballistics report on the one ammunition they found on my car. Then later on said that my docket was in court to determine if it go on for prosecution, when I later followed up on that he explicitly stated that I must never contact him ever again.

Good day, This case has been ongoing for quite some time, and each time we appear in court, the files are either missing or something happens that prevents the matter from being presented. Last week, the acting attorney issued me with an affidavit and insisted that I sign the court documents. My question to the attorney was: where did the file suddenly come from, as I was under the impression that it was missing? To add to this, my attorney who was originally on the case has since withdrawn. Kindly please advise and assist.

Case Summary for Legal Representation I am the biological father of a minor child, Zayan, and I currently face serious ongoing obstruction from the child’s mother, regarding my parental rights. A Parenting Plan was negotiated with the assistance of a court-appointed mediator and was made an Order of Court in September . The plan set out phased visitation and co-parenting arrangements, including my compliance with financial obligations (maintenance, medical aid, life cover, parenting courses, and play therapy). I have complied fully with all of these requirements. Despite the Parenting Plan being a binding court order, the mother has consistently: Breached the plan by blocking overnight visitation, restricting all contact to her or her mother’s house, and dictating when and how I may see my son. Engaged in gatekeeping by ignoring video calls, cancelling visitation at short notice, and refusing to allow my son to visit me at my home, despite his own expressed wishes (“saam pappa tata”). Attacked my character through false allegations and by undermining my role as a parent in messages, emails, and via her attorney. Linked visitation to money, demanding additional payments beyond maintenance and medical aid, and using financial manipulation to obstruct contact. Both the mediator and the therapist appointed in our case resigned after being harassed and undermined by Keana and her legal representatives. This has left me without professional support structures while the ongoing breaches continue. I have gathered substantial evidence including the court order, mediator and therapist letters, proof of financial compliance, banking records, WhatsApp chats showing gatekeeping and refusals, and photographic evidence of my bond with my son. At this stage, I urgently require legal advice and representation to: Enforce the existing Parenting Plan and Court Order. Bring an application for contempt of court against Keana for repeated breaches. Ensure my child’s best interests are protected, including his right to a relationship with both parents. Secure a stable, enforceable visitation arrangement free from manipulation and gatekeeping. This case is about upholding my child’s best interests and ensuring the Court’s authority is respected. I need a strong legal team to help me prepare, present, and argue this matter effectively in Court.
