The court held that solicitor and own client costs should not be ordered inter partes except in wholly exceptional cases; this case did not meet that high threshold, so the proper order was to tax the costs of the taxation proceedings to the defendant on an indemnity basis with a certificate for counsel and to set aside the Master's solicitor and own client order.
