cHAP. 111] THE UNION OF SOUTH AFRICA 979 of a single Court of Appeal in South Africa, from which no appeal should lie save by special leave to the Privy Council.! Before the appeals might come direct to the Privy Council of right or by special leave from no fewer than three Courts in the Cape—the Supreme Court proper, the Court of the Eastern Districts, and the High Court of Griqualand—from the Supreme Courts of the Transvaal, the Orange River Colony, and Natal, the Witwatersrand Court, the Native High Court in Natal, the High Court of Rhodesia, and the Swaziland Court. By the Act all these Courts are consoli- dated into one Supreme Court for South Africa, which consists of two divisions, the Supreme Court and the Appel- late Division. This division includes the Chief Justice and two ordinary judges, and two additional judges of appeal who shall from time to time be assigned from any of the local or provincial divisions of the Supreme Court to the appellate division by the Governor-General in Council, but who shall still do their ordinary work whenever their services can be spared. The Supreme Courts, including the High Court of the Orange River Colony and the Court of the Eastern Districts of the Cape, the High Court of Griqualand, the Witwatersrand Court, and the several Circuit Courts, will be provincial and local divisions of the Supreme Court of South Africa and preserve their original jurisdiction plus jurisdiction in all suits in which the Union is a party or a provincial ordinance is challenged as invalid. They will also, unless Parliament otherwise provides, have jurisdiction in regard bo electoral questions affecting the Parliament or the Councils. In future appeals from the superior Courts of the old Colonies and from the High Court of South Rhodesia, from which at present appeals lie to the Supreme Courts of the Colonies—that is, in the case of the Cape, the Court of the Eastern Districts and the High Court of Griqualand and the Circuit Courts, and in the Transvaal the Witwatersrand Court—will lie only to the appellate division of the Supreme Court, save in the case of orders or judgements by a single judge on applications and motions of a minor character, or 1 Of, The Qovernment of South Africa, i. 56 seq, ; ii. 14 seq. re?
