    Case number
    HCA15005/1999

    The application/appeal is dismissed. If treated as an appeal under Order 58 it was out of time; if treated as a review under Order 62 r35 the court lacked jurisdiction because no request had been made under r34(4) for reasons; additionally, on the merits the taxing master properly exercised her function and the taxed amount of $84,750.66 was justified. Costs are awarded to the plaintiff and the court assessed a gross sum of $32,000 for the appeal/review to be paid forthwith by the Company.
