Costs claims against the District Court fail because the identified errors were mistakes of law or process made in good faith and do not meet the high threshold (perversity, oppression or bad faith) required to award costs against a judicial officer; the private prosecutor who abided the decision similarly is not ordered to pay costs; accordingly costs lie where they fall.
