The Court of Appeal held the trial judge did not err in principle in exercising his wide discretion under Rule 22 to make no order as to costs in an election petition; there is no rule mandating that costs automatically follow the event in Part VI proceedings and an appellate court will not overturn a discretionary costs decision absent an error of principle.
