The hearing is expected to wrap on Wednesday afternoon or during the course of Thursday morning.
After getting wrong the law and the facts, the public protector outsourced the process of trying to justify a crucial report, ABSA told the court.

MPs have decided the justice and correctional services portfolio committee will look into the Mkhwebane’s fitness to hold office.
Those allegations are not only unfounded but malicious, Mkhwebane says.
Zuma offered a new and seemingly contradictory explanation as to why he originally did not seek a stay of his obligation to set up an inquiry.
Does Zuma’s still-pending application to review and overturn Madonsela’s state capture report absolve him of the responsibility to act on it?
In its application to review Mkhwebane’s report the Reserve Bank listed what it calls a number of “evidential factual inaccuracies therein”.
Questions have been raised as her name isn’t on the roll of advocates kept by the department of justice and updated monthly.
Mkhwebane has, according to the Reserve Bank, the minister of finance and Absa, abandoned the idea of fairness.
Mkhwebane further argues that Zuma cannot decide who will chair the commission as he has a direct personal or financial interest in its outcome
BLF leader Andile Mngxitama promised to continue his efforts “by any means necessary.”
Although the Reserve Bank is typically conservative and careful with its words, Kganyago’s affidavit pulls no punches.
Nationalisation would leave people at the mercy of a government that has already proven to be self-serving and intent on growing personal wealth.
The party also criticised Madonsela for her handling of the State of Capture report.
Thuli Madonsela’s tenure at the helm of the office of the public protector of South Africa has significantly raised the profile of the institution

Busisiwe Mkhwebane is supposed to be in a “honeymoon” period during which she gains the confidence of her countrymen and women.
It takes a particular kind of lawyer to make that shift from defending the state to defending the public, said former ANC MP Vytjie Mentor.
Busisiwe Mkhwebane has made no move to probe four parastatals, the president, the mining minister and a bank.
The treasury didn’t divert US money to persecute the president, which is just as well, because $3-billion in funding is plugging important holes
Personal touches aside, there’s irony in the new public protector’s priorities.
ANC chief whip’s office spokesperson says the party was disappointed by the statement by Baleka Mbete containing an outright refusal to look after it.
If the fall-out from the president’s last meeting with Thuli Madonsela is anything to go by, the chances are he’s in for a tough time.
A call on ‘the people’ worked in respect of Nkandla. It may also work for the contempt shown to the office of the public protector.
A growing number of cases and legal challenges are threatening the office’s ability to do its work properly.
Deputy Public Protector Kevin Malunga does not have the required security clearance to get his boss’s job, a parliamentary committee has heard.
In many ways, Thuli Madonsela has defined what her office does and her successor has much to live up to.
Some who are eyeing up the public protector’s mantle are already more equal than others.
The open canvassing for the job of Public Protector is the best thing to happen to democracy since democracy.
The big issues matter much for the Public Protector, or there will be no money for people’s pension or other smaller cases.
The provincial government is set to cough up money it owes to a construction company following an M&G report on its defiance of the public protector.
