“The body corporate for the Borgo de Felice (“hamlet of happiness”) estate in Dainfern has filed papers in the Johannesburg high court seeking to compel Sodi’s company, Blackhead Consulting, to pay R345,483 in levies.”
SINGLE SOURCE
The claim specifies a filing by the body corporate for the Borgo de Felice estate in the Johannesburg high court demanding R345,483. While web search results mention 'Borgo de Felice' and 'Dainfern' in relation to property, none of the provided search results confirm the specific legal filing, the exact amount, or the court action described in the claim. The evidence is insufficient to corroborate the specific legal action.
