Faulkner v Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy: QBD 18 Feb 2020

The issues which fall to be determined between the parties in this case are:
(i) whether or not a defendant in proceedings to which the QOCS regime applies may, nevertheless, seek to set off against a costs order made in favour of the claimant a costs order which had previously been made in favour of the defendant; and
(ii) if so, whether the court can or should exercise its discretion in favour of such a claimant against allowing such a set off.
