In light of the fact\u00a0that CPR Part 36 will apply to costs proceedings when the Legal Aid, Sentencing & Punishment of Offenders Act of 2012 comes into force, come April 2013, we are left\u00a0pondering whether the Justice Minister\u2019s recent statement to Parliament contains an obvious error.<\/p>\n

In\u00a0Mr Djanogly\u2019s statement he announced that, in light of further recommendations from the CJC, implementation of LASPO Act 2012<\/em> will include the following:<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is to be an additional sanction to be paid where judgment for the claimant is more advantageous than a defendant\u2019s part 36 offer. This additional sanction is to be calculated as 10% of damages where damages are in issue, and 10% of costs for non-damages claims\u201d.<\/p>\n

This is almost the exact opposite of what Jackson LJ proposed:<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere a defendant rejects a claimant\u2019s offer, but fails to do better at trial, the claimant\u2019s recovery should be enhanced by 10%.\u201d<\/p>\n

Remember, from April 2012, CPR Part 36 will apply to Costs proceedings..!<\/p>\n
