The Master declined to refer the Bills on Merits to taxation but referred six of the eight bills (First, Second and Third Bills for both matters) to the Taxing Master because the unpaid/within‑12‑month bills and the plaintiffs' lack of notification of the right to tax, together with their willingness to pay into court, justified the exercise of discretion; paid Bills on Merits did not meet the special‑circumstances threshold as they were within estimate.
