The judge exercised discretion to strike out the 1st Plaintiff's personal claim as duplicative, dismissed the action against the 6th Defendant with indemnity costs because the claim against her was unreasonable/malicious and unsupported by the evidence, and applied the principle that where only nominal damages are awarded the usual practice is no order as to costs between the parties, additionally ordering the Plaintiff to bear jury expenses.
