The Issues
The Defendant represented the Claimant in personal injury proceedings. The Claimant then sought an assessment of the Defendant’s bill of costs, which included an after the event insurance policy costing £644.
The Claimant raised a Part 18 request relating to the relationship between the Defendant and the ATE insurer, apparently seeking to ascertain whether any commission had been paid. The Defendant refused to answer the request. The Claimant made an application for an order that the Defendant do respond to his Part 18 request. Neither party put any evidence before the judge at the hearing of the application.
