Former president Jacob Zuma has appeared in public for the first time since his expulsion from the ANC .
Zuma turned up at the Durban high court on Thursday in support of his MK Party in its legal battle against the ANC.
The ANC is appealing a ruling by the high court dismissing its application to bar the MK Party using what it says is its name and trademark.
The ANC on Thursday vowed to take its bid to the Supreme Court of Appeal, saying it is confident there are reasonable prospects of success.
Previously the court ruled the ANC had not made a case for the relief it sought, finding its application was not urgent and it should have approached the Electoral Court, not the high court.
