The applications to strike out and to stay were dismissed because there are unresolved factual disputes (notably the alleged oral agreement), the defendant were appointed solicitors so it is not clear and obvious their charges are non‑taxable, the plaintiffs are entitled to seek solicitor and own client taxation under the LPO, and the Related Action does not bind the plaintiffs nor removes the necessity of their participation; therefore striking out or staying the proceedings was inappropriate.
