The African legal system in South Africa is called indigenous law or customary law and is made up of unwritten customs that are passed down from one generation to another. This indigenous law does not apply consistently to all African tribes but differs from one tribe to another and from one territory to another. It is a communal or group-orientated system (Burns 2015; 16).

You are required to conduct research on the factors that a South African Court would consider before making decision whether a custom would be regarded as indigenous/legal rule or not. Explain the research conducted by using an example.
