The primary fault lay with counsel for the plaintiff for mentioning the interim payment; defendants who had agreed the trial bundle containing the interim payment order were not justified in obtaining costs against the plaintiff; counsel and solicitors breached duties regarding trial management, notification of estimates and communications with judges and must observe Order 29 rule 15 and professional obligations.
