The court serving Witbank, filed by the department as eMalahleni, sits at five venues besides its own building, and one of them is a prison.
Official contact channels
- eMalahleni Magistrate Court, Witbank: 013 656 2221
Services and responsibilities
The five places of sitting are Dullstroom, eNtokozweni, Ogies, Vosman and the Witbank Correctional Centre. A sitting at a correctional centre means matters involving people already in custody are heard on site rather than transporting them to the court, which is common for bail applications and postponements.
Office and address information
The main court is at 14 Delville Street, eMalahleni, 1035. The correctional centre sitting is not a public court venue in the ordinary sense: access is controlled and visitors cannot simply attend as they would at Delville Street.
Applications and escalation
If you are told a matter is being heard at the correctional centre, confirm with the court before travelling, because attendance arrangements differ. Middelburg in Mpumalanga on 013 283 7500 is the main seat for the Nkangala district.
