R v HITENDRA PATEL (COSTS) (2012)

PUBLISHED July 6, 2012

[2012] EWCA Crim 1508

Whilst the court had jurisdiction to re-open its decision to make a defendant's costs order, as the court had been unaware that the defendant and his solicitors had agreed to remove a cap on fees, which increased the fees retrospectively, it was appropriate to let the assessment by the determining officer take its course.
