Outcome
Other
Facts
This was a costs hearing following earlier substantive proceedings involving two separate case numbers. The respondent NHS Trust applied for costs against the self-represented claimant. The tribunal heard the application at a hearing with a full panel.
Decision
The tribunal unanimously dismissed the respondent's costs application. No costs were awarded against the claimant. The tribunal gave oral reasons at the hearing but did not provide written reasons in this judgment.
Practical note
A costs application by an NHS Trust against a litigant in person was unsuccessful, with the tribunal declining to award any costs to the respondent.
