- High Court
The court held that the proceedings are category 2 for costs purposes, that public interest and trust/fiduciary considerations did not justify departing from the ordinary rule that costs follow the event, and that there was no party conduct sufficient to alter that rule; accordingly costs were awarded to the first and second defendants jointly and to the third defendant on a 2B basis, assessed at 12.15 days, totaling $19,440.
