The NLATO was set aside because the judge failed to comply with the procedural requirements for wasted costs proceedings under Order 62 rules 8-8E and Practice Direction 14.5 by not giving the legal representative prior intimation and a reasonable opportunity to show cause; therefore the NLATO was procedurally unfair and must be vacated; it was unnecessary to resolve the substantive test for wasted costs.
