The MKP's registration application was approved by the Electoral Commission of SA (IEC) late last year.
In the unanimous decision, read by Judge Lebogang Modiba, the court found that the ANC - which acknowledged that it should have instituted court proceedings within the prescribed three days of the IEC's decision - failed to explain why it waited longer to initiate court proceedings.
