C.T. Bowring & Co (Insurance) Ltd v Corsi & Partners - Court of Appeal (Dillon and Millett LJJ and Sir Michael Kerr) - 16 June 1994
Defendant applied for inquiry into damages after discharge of interlocutory injunction obtained by plaintiff - Whether Court has jurisdiction to order defendant to give security for costs in connection with such application
The issue in this appeal was whether a defendant who had obtained the discharge of an interlocutory injunction against it
and who sought to enforce the plaintiff’s cross-undertaking in damages could be ordered to give security for the plaintiff’s
costs whether of resisting the application for an inquiry as to damages or, if such an inquiry was ordered, of the inquiry
itself.
