    The application for special leave under s 67 is dismissed because the matter did not meet the required threshold of sufficient importance given the modest sums at stake and the discretionary nature of the costs decision; the timing and terms of the second Calderbank letter meant costs would likely have lain where they fell or been limited, so appellate intervention was not justified.
