The Court upheld the costs order of the judge below because the plaintiff had not advanced the appropriate challenge below; the plaintiff was awarded 80% of the costs of the appeal (losing 20% because indemnity was a fresh point on appeal and taxation arguments were intertwined), the plaintiff was not awarded costs of the Amendment Summons, costs to be taxed with certificate for two counsel if not agreed, and the plaintiff must pay 50% of the 5th Defendant's costs for submissions on costs.
