The court refused to vary the Costs Order Nisi to an indemnity basis because the plaintiff's arguments, though rejected, were not hopeless and its conduct was not unreasonable to a high degree; the failure to provide particulars did not amount to oppressive or abusive conduct sufficient to warrant indemnity costs, and the Costs Order Nisi was made absolute with the defendant ordered to pay the plaintiff's costs of the variation application.
