The Master exercised his discretion to decline taxation of the two 'Bills on Merits' but to refer six of the eight bills (First, Second and Third bills for both files and additional unpaid bills) to the Taxing Master because: unpaid bills within 12 months and plaintiffs were not informed of the right to tax justified referral; the First Bills showed signs of exceeding original estimates and concerns about disproportionate expert costs which constituted the special circumstances needed to refer paid First Bills to taxation.
