TypeTaxation of CostsPostureRespondent's preliminary objection to the taxation of costs dismissedCoramHS WASILWA, Sir Charles New Newbold
Holding

The preliminary objection is without merit and is dismissed.

Facts

The petitioner sought to have the taxation of costs conducted in a different court file, but the Employment and Labour Relations Court dismissed this application on January 23, 2020. The petitioner then filed a bill of costs in a reconstructed file.

Issues

  1. Whether the bill of costs was filed in the original court file as required by the court's ruling on January 23, 2020.
  2. Whether the preliminary objection should be dismissed as it does not raise pure points of law.

Reasoning

The court ruled that the bill of costs was filed in a reconstructed file in line with the court's previous ruling, and that the preliminary objection does not raise pure points of law.

Outcome

The preliminary objection is dismissed.

Orders

  • The preliminary objection is dismissed.
  • Costs to the respondents.
