The Court dismissed P&T's summons and ordered P&T to pay the Liquidators' costs because the alleged misapprehension did not stem from the Liquidators' conduct, unsuccessful subsidiary arguments by the successful party did not justify depriving costs absent material additional expense, and the delay in prosecution did not result in increased costs; therefore costs follow the event.
