Wu and Tsiang

In *Wu and Tsiang*, the husband sought to appeal an interlocutory injunction granted by a judge of the Supreme Court of Victoria. The injunction had been granted in favour of Ms Wu, the respondent, and restrained the husband from taking certain actions. The appeal concerned the costs of the interlocutory proceedings and the costs of the appeal itself.

The primary legal issue before Stevenson J was whether the husband should be ordered to pay Ms Wu's costs of the interlocutory proceedings and the costs of the appeal application. This involved considering the general principles of costs in interlocutory matters and the specific circumstances of the case.

Stevenson J determined that the husband should pay Ms Wu's costs of the injunctive proceedings at first instance, reflecting the outcome of that application. However, regarding the costs of the instant application to appeal, no order was made, indicating that each party was to bear their own costs for that specific application.
