NEWS RELEASE: LFN Back in Court: Lockdown Extensions Were Invalid, Billions in Damages Possible
LFN has once again taken the fight to court. On 28 August 2025 we lodged a landmark application proving that the National State of Disaster legally ended on 14 June 2020 — and that every extension thereafter was unlawful. With three of the four COVID-19 vaccines now deregistered and hundreds of South Africans already coming forward with claims of loss, this case could open the way for billions in compensation. Download the full application from our website and see for yourself why this may become one of the most important constitutional battles in South Africa’s history.
