Employment Tribunals

Kovacks v Queen Mary & Westfield College CA, 22nd March 2002

This case established that the means of parties are not to be taken into account when costs/expenses are being awarded. Once the threshold of "unreasonable conduct” had been crossed there was no reason why the misbehaving party should not compensate his opponent for costs, which plainly he should not have been forced to incur.
