Because the plaintiff is impecunious, its central causes of action arising from Plan Change 35 have limited prospects of success on questions of duty and causation, the pleading is over‑complicated and disproportionate to the council's arguable contribution to loss, it was just to order security for costs of $60,000 payable in two tranches with a stay to follow if unpaid.
