The Western Cape High Court's judge Dennis Davis handed down the judgement earlier today. 


The opposition party last month filed papers against Motsoeneng, the SABC and board chairperson. 


It wanted them to be found in contempt of court for not suspending Motsoeneng as per a court order a year ago.


"We won," said Democratic Alliance lawyer Anton Katz outside the court.
