- CACC19/2010
The court held that rule 7(4) may be used to give notice in respect of costs that have already been taxed even if the whole bill remains part-heard; alternatively, if rule 7(4) did not so apply, the court possessed inherent jurisdiction to grant an interim certificate to remedy a procedural lacuna and prevent injustice, provided no statutory provision was contravened; applying those principles the court granted an interim certificate for taxed or agreed costs up to 10 June 2009.
