Bahar and Sohrab (No 2)

In *Bahar and Sohrab (No 2)*, the applicant sought security for costs against the respondent concerning applications filed on 6 March 2017, 12 April 2017 (excluding those before Watts J), and 27 April 2017. The dispute centred on the respondent's potential liability for costs associated with these applications. The matter came before Gill J.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether to order the respondent to provide security for the applicant's costs in relation to the specified applications. This involved an assessment of the circumstances to determine if such an order was warranted under the relevant rules of court.

Gill J ordered that the respondent pay $50,000 to the applicant's solicitors within seven days to be held as security for costs. The court further ordered that should the respondent fail to comply with this payment order, the specified applications would be stayed pending payment.
