- High Court
Because the appellant failed to pay security for costs and failed to prosecute the appeal, the respondent was entitled to limited 2B scale costs for preparation and attendance at the first case management conference; the court refused a 50% uplift and declined to award costs for the brief costs memorandum or for work related to a notice of opposition, awarding $2,453 to the respondent as a reasonable sum for the identified steps.
