CaseChat Overview and Summary

In *Equuscorp Pty Ltd v Glengallan Investments Pty Ltd (No 2)*, the High Court of Australia considered the disposition of costs in an appeal. The case involved Equuscorp Pty Ltd as the appellant and Glengallan Investments Pty Ltd as the respondent.

The primary legal issue before the High Court was the appropriate order for the costs of the appeal itself. The court was also required to determine how the costs of the proceedings at first instance and in the intermediate appellate court should be handled.

The High Court ordered that the respondent, Glengallan Investments Pty Ltd, pay the appellants' costs of and incidental to the appeal to the High Court. However, the court remitted the disposition of the costs of the proceedings otherwise, meaning the costs incurred in the Supreme Court of Queensland, to that court for determination.
