Willis Australia Group Services Pty Ltd v Mitchell-Innes (No 2)

Willis Australia Group Services Pty Ltd (the appellant) and Mitchell-Innes (the respondent) were parties to an appeal before the New South Wales Court of Appeal. The appeal concerned consequential findings relating to the quantification of damages and the making of costs orders, following a principal judgment that had been delivered previously.

The Court of Appeal was required to determine the appropriate orders to give effect to its earlier principal judgment. This involved considering the specific amounts of damages to be awarded and the allocation of costs between the parties in light of that judgment.

The Court of Appeal directed the parties to file a minute of judgment that would implement the reasoning and conclusions previously articulated in the principal judgment. This indicated that the court was finalising the financial and cost consequences arising from its earlier decision on the substantive appeal.
