The letters relied upon by Philip's Group were not self-contained open offers limited to the issues before the court and were made in circumstances where Without Prejudice settlement time was misused for tactical advantage; accordingly they could not attract the proposed costs sanctions and the plaintiff, having succeeded on the substantive thrust of her case, was entitled to her costs to be paid by the defendants who opposed her (the 1st, 4th, 5th and 7th defendants), including costs for essential witnesses, with taxation if not agreed.
