R V COUNSEL (V COWARD & S RAMASAMY) SUB NOM RE COWARD & RAMASAMY (WASTED COSTS ORDER) (NO.5 OF 1997) (1999)

PUBLISHED July 20, 1999
SHARE

It was not proper to issue a witness summons for disclosure for the speculative purpose that some material might come to light that would discredit a complainant, and such an application would give rise to the risk of a wasted costs order.
