Judgment will be handed down on Thursday in a bid by a number of Pilgrims Rest business people to prevent their evictions from their workplaces.
Judge Stanley Makgoba will hand down his ruling in the High Court in Pretoria.
The Pilgrims Rest business group has been served with eviction notices, set to be put into effect at the end of July.
The owners lease their properties from the Mpumalanga public works department.
The group's lawyer told the court on Wednesday that there were irregularities in the way tendering for the new leases was carried out by the Mpumalanga government.
