Receiving party failed to proceed with taxation with reasonable promptitude, producing an inexcusable/unaccounted delay of approximately eight to nine months; proof of prejudice is not required to exercise the discretion under RHC O62 r22(3) and r7(5); appropriate remedy is a global reduction of 8% of the taxed costs in each of the four bills and reinstatement of items relating to costs of taxation, with an adjourned hearing to deal with re‑instated items and costs.
