Cap. 576 and its rules preserve the ordinary rule that costs follow the event; petitioner was prima facie liable for costs on withdrawal/dismissal under s.46(7); having regard to the nature of the petition, reliance on hearsay, conjecture and failure to investigate, the court exercised its discretion to order the petitioner to pay the respondents' costs and to have those costs taxed on an indemnity basis.
