| Abstract: | The Mbukushu are living in local communities along the Kavango River in the northwest province of Ngamiland of Botswana and in the neighbouring Kavango area of South West Africa/Namibia. First this article describes the chief's court, the local community and homestead courts. Next it deals with fines, punishements and laws of the Mbukushu, in which there is a great deal of variation.
