Nuisance, Magistrates
The court was concerned with the refusal of the magistrates to make a compensation order after a plea of guilty to a statutory nuisance. The magistrates had also refused to award costs of the adjourned hearing at which compensation had been sought. Held: The court declined to interfere with the refusal of the compensation, but the costs of that hearing were properly incurred. “Under section 82(12)...the Justices are bound to make a costs order in favour of any complainant, once it is found that a statutory nuisance existed at the date of the making of the complaint. The only limit on that is that the award is to compensate the complainant only for expenses properly incurred. That would seem to be intended to ensure that the amount to be paid by a defendant is not increased by any improper act or omission on the part of a complainant or his professional representatives . ”
