The court held that the plaintiff failed to show special circumstances under s67(2) Cap.159 because the delay was unexplained and deliberate; alleged breaches of retainer and complaints of overcharging or lack of particularisation were not special when the bill was presented and amount at most to matters for ordinary taxation; therefore late referral to a Taxing Master was not justified and the appeal allowing the defendants to resist taxation succeeded.
