CaseChat Overview and Summary

In the matter of *Milliford and Milliford*, heard before Rees J, the husband sought orders that the wife's solicitor be required to pay the costs of two specific applications filed by the husband on 26 July 2017 and 13 February 2018.

The central legal issue before the court was whether the wife's solicitor should be held personally liable for the costs incurred by the husband in relation to these two applications.

Rees J dismissed both of the husband's applications. The reasons for this dismissal are not detailed in the provided text, but the outcome indicates that the court found no grounds to order the wife's solicitor to pay the costs of the husband's applications.
