Yagomba v AXA UK Plc and 16 Others: EAT 9 Feb 2016

EAT Practice and Procedure: Withdrawal – PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE – Costs
A late withdrawal of an appeal that became academic some time before the hearing, led to costs applications by both sides.
The Appellant’s costs application failed. The Appellant’s conduct in pursuing the appeal after it had become academic was unreasonable. He was ordered to pay a proportion of the costs claimed by the Respondent.
