Wills and others v The Crown Estate Commissioners: SCCO 14 Jul 2003

The main point on this appeal from a decision of a Deputy Costs Judge was the affirmation by the Judge that the two cases of Attorney General v Nethercote [1841] and Re Marsdens Estate [1889] 40 Ch D 475, were still good law, holding as they had that where costs were payable out of a fund the question of whether interest was payable, and if so at what rate, was determined by the rules applicable to the fund and there was no residual jurisdiction for the court to award interest on any other basis.
