Bloemfontein - Papers have been filed at the Supreme Court of Appeal by Friday's deadline, as agreed upon in the appeal hearing on the so-called spy tapes litigation.
A SCA court official confirmed that papers were sent to the court by Friday afternoon's deadline in the matter between President Jacob Zuma and the Democratic Alliance.
It is not known what the documents contained.
A full bench of the SCA on 15 August gave Zuma and the DA another chance to resolve their differences with regard to documents in the National Prosecuting Authority's (NPA) possession, involving the so-called spy tapes.
In April 2009, then acting NPA head Mokotedi Mpshe withdrew fraud and corruption charges against Zuma.
In March last year, the SCA ordered the NPA to lodge a record of the documents with the registrar of the High Court on which the NPA had based its decision.
Information
The NPA refused to do so on the basis that it contained confidential representations by Zuma.
The High Court in Pretoria then ordered the NPA to adhere to the original order by the SCA for a reduced record of the documents that the DA was looking for.
They included the so-called spy tapes.
Zuma appealed against this decision.
During a SCA appeal hearing last week, the two sides agreed in principle to a third party, a senior legal mind, to be asked to judge what information formed part of the confidential representations of Zuma to the NPA.
The legal counsels had until Friday to have an agreement delivered to the SCA.
If the parties could not come to an agreement on a third party, the High Court's decision would stand.
Judgment was reserved.
