- Court of Appeal
The Court held the trial Judge did not err in principle in exercising his discretion under r14.11 to award the respondent reduced 2B costs despite the appellant's marginally superior pre-trial offer; balancing all relevant factors the Judge lawfully reduced costs by 35% and the Court of Appeal dismissed the appellant's challenge and ordered indemnity costs against the appellant for instituting an unreasonable appeal.
