The appeal is dismissed because taxation proceedings only assess the amount payable under an existing costs order and the Basic Law arguments raised by the defendant are irrelevant to that process; the defendant failed to follow the prescribed procedure for objections, and attacks on the underlying contempt order do not affect the taxation process so the Master’s directions stand and summary assessment is ordered.
