Instructions: Read the set of facts below and answer the questions that follow.
Mr and Mrs Molefe got married in December 1982 while on vacation in Mauritius. At
the time of entering into the marriage, Mr and Mrs Molefe were both domiciled in
Botswana and were Botswanan citizens. Shortly after returning from their
honeymoon, Mr and Mrs Molefe immigrated to South Africa and established a
domicile in Pretoria. Three children were born from the marriage and Mr Molefe
stayed at home to look after them, since Mrs Molefe travelled extensively as the
CEO of a large telecommunications company. In June 2015, Mr Molefe instituted
divorce proceedings against Mrs Molefe in the North Gauteng High Court.
1.1 Which legal system applies to the formal validity of Mr and Mrs Molefe’s
marriage in terms of the South African rules of private international law? (2)
In terms of the rules of private international law the material validity of marriage is
governed by the lex loci celebrationis that is the law of marriage celebration. The law of
marriage celebration refers to the place where the marriage was celebrated. By
virtue of the given set of facts the marriage was concluded in Mauritius meaning.
The legal system would then be Mauritian law. 1
We have pointed out above that material validity of a marriage is governed by the lex
loci celebrationis. However this general rule has two exceptions which are doctrine
of fraus legis and the principle of public policy. Our main focus is on the former since it is
the most relevant to our hypothetical case.
In terms of the doctrine of fraus legis if it is established that parties to marriage
deliberately celebrated their marriage somewhere else to avoid the parental consent
