The 2.4.2012 letter did not constitute mutual consent to taxation; respondent did not deliver a bill of costs within the meaning of section 126(1) LPA and, even if he had, he filed for taxation after the one year statutory period; consequently the High Court order for taxation was unsustainable and the appeal is allowed. Where a bill is undisputed a solicitor may sue within six years from completion of the business.
