Defendants failed to comply with s.15(1) Jury Ordinance which undermined their entitlement to a jury; given plaintiffs incurred costs in opposing a jury trial and the uncertainty as to whether defendants would have succeeded despite non-compliance, the court applied the rule that costs follow the event and ordered defendants to pay plaintiffs' costs relating to the jury dispute from 29 October 2010 to 10 December 2010, with those costs to be summarily assessed under specified time limits.
