Gill, Dr Christine -v- Stephen Woodall, Stanley Lonsdale and the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals - Chancery Division - Mr James Allen QC (Deputy High Court Judge)
Costs Sanction- the RSPCA’s reluctance to mediate the case was described as “unreasonable” and indemnity costs were ordered against the RSPCA on part of the claim
Consideration as to whether a failure to respond to an offer to mediate is, in itself, unreasonable conduct which should lead to cost sanctions. Costs awarded to the successful party on an indemnity basis despite failure to mediate.
