Timeline

1950

Kevin Gerard Beecroft Swain (born 20 December 1950) is a South African retired judge who served in the Supreme Court of Appeal from 2014 to 2020.

Swain was born on 20 December 1950 in Pietermaritzburg in the former Natal Province.

1967

He attended Merchiston Preparatory School and Maritzburg College, matriculating in 1967.

1972

Thereafter he studied at the University of Natal's Pietermaritzburg campus, where he completed a BSc in 1972 and an LLB cum laude in 1975, and at the University of Cambridge, where he completed a second LLB in 1977.

His study at Cambridge was funded by a bursary from the Attorneys, Notaries and Conveyancers Fidelity Fund.

1975

Swain was admitted as an advocate in 1975, shortly after his graduation from the University of Natal.

1977

When he returned to South Africa from Cambridge in 1977, he commenced his practice at the Pietermaritzburg Bar, where he worked for the next 26 years and where he took silk in 1993.

During the post-apartheid period, his clients included the African National Congress, which he represented in litigation on floor-crossing.

1978

During his time at the Bar, Swain was a part-time lecturer at the University of Natal from 1978 to 1980, teaching public international law and law of evidence, and he was later the vice-chairman of the Pietermaritzburg Bar for two terms from 1995 to 1997 and from 1999 to 2001.

1998

In addition, he was an acting judge in the KwaZulu-Natal High Court on several occasions between 1998 and 2003.

2003

He was formerly a judge of the KwaZulu-Natal High Court from 2003 to 2014.

Before joining the bench in November 2003, he was an advocate and Senior Counsel in Pietermaritzburg.

On 1 November 2003, Swain joined the bench permanently as a judge of the KwaZulu-Natal High Court.

2012

He served in that court for over a decade, although he served a protracted stint as an acting judge in the Supreme Court of Appeal from October 2012 to May 2014; during the same period, he was also periodically an acting judge in the Competition Appeal Court.

2014

In April 2014, Swain was among seven candidates whom the Judicial Service Commission shortlisted and interviewed for possible permanent elevation to the Supreme Court of Appeal.

Then serving as an acting judge of appeal, he was viewed as a frontrunner: Judge President Lex Mpati was complimentary during his interview, and the Business Day described his candidacy as "apparently universally supported".

After the interviews, the commission recommended Swain, Boissie Mbha, and Dumisani Zondi for appointment, and President Jacob Zuma accepted the recommendation the following month, appointing the trio to the Supreme Court of Appeal with effect from 1 June 2014.

2020

Swain served in the appellate court until his retirement in 2020.

He is married to Anne Swain; they have two children.
