Supreme Court rules delay interest on legal costs calculated from the date of the lower court's cost order.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court ruled that delay interest on legal costs must be calculated from the date the lower court ordered the applicant to pay the opponent's costs. The applicant argued for a different start date, but the Court held that the lower court's specific order defines the moment the debt becomes enforceable and interest accrues. Consequently, the Court confirmed the lower court's calculation method as legally correct.
