Prevention of Illegal Eviction from and Unlawful Occupation of Land Act (PIE) (No 19 of 1998)
The Prevention of Illegal Eviction from and Unlawful Occupation of Land Act No 19 of 1998 (also called PIE) provides procedures for eviction of unlawful occupants and prohibits unlawful evictions. The main aim of the Act is to protect both occupiers and landowners.
An unlawful occupier is a person who occupies land without the express or tacit permission of the owner or the person in charge. Tacit permission is when the owner is aware of the occupant being on the land or premises but does nothing to stop this.
