Balancing exercise: having regard to the expanded amended claim, the parties' realistic estimate of a 5 week trial, likely scale assessment of about 50 days (Band B with some Band C), and reasonable disbursement estimates, the Court exercised its discretion to order security sufficient to protect the defendant without crippling the plaintiff and fixed the second tranche at $80,000 for legal costs and $80,000 for disbursements.
