Gorbold and Zouh

In *Gorbold and Zouh*, heard before Johnston J, the dispute concerned the assessment of costs payable by Ms Zouh to Ms Gorbold following proceedings between them. The court was tasked with determining the appropriate amount of costs to be awarded to Ms Gorbold.

The central legal issue before the court was to assess and quantify Ms Gorbold's reasonable costs incurred in the proceedings. This involved considering the nature of the dispute, the conduct of the parties, and the overall justice of the case in determining the quantum of the costs order.

Johnston J ordered that Ms Zouh pay to Ms Gorbold the sum of $20,000, representing the court's assessment of Ms Gorbold's appropriate costs in the proceedings. This order was subject to the formal entry of the order in the Court's records.
