Whether a claimant in statutory and judicial review cases who is unsuccessful at the permission stage should be liable for the costs of multiple other parties, including respondents and interested parties.
Facts
The Appellant applied for judicial review against the Respondents and Interested Party. Permission for judicial review was refused.

She ordered that the Appellant pay both Respondents’ and the Interested Party’s costs up to that cap, totalling £10,000. The Appellant challenges this order.
