CaseChat Overview and Summary

This matter concerned an application for review of taxation brought before the Federal Court of Australia by Holden, as trustee of the bankrupt estate of Fima Pekar, against Pekar. The trustee sought to review the taxation of certain costs.

The primary legal issue before the Court was whether the trustee's arguments regarding the taxation of costs were valid and ought to lead to a review and alteration of the taxed costs.
