Regina v Meyer: 1875

The court made an order for costs against a justice who ought not to have sat on a case. (Comment: ‘The granting of costs when a rule is made absolute for a certiorari is contrary to the usual practice: see Gray on Costs p 466 where it is said: ‘As there is no provision (in the statute 5 Geo 2, c 19) for the payment of costs where the order or other proceedings is quashed, neither party is in that case entitled to costs’.’)
