    Citation
    [2023] NZHC 1044
    Court
    High Court

    The applicant must pay the respondent the claimed costs of $6,758.50 because costs follow the event, there was no established basis to refuse or reduce costs based on alleged conduct in other proceedings, and an appeal does not justify deferring the costs order.
