If there was no<br \/>\nentitlement to costs pre-issue this would effectively frustrate the purpose of<br \/>\nCPR r.36 and would encourage parties to issue proceedings just to protect their<br \/>\nposition on costs, thereby contradicting the overall intention of the rules which<br \/>\nwas to promote early pre-issue settlement.<\/p>\n<p>It is hoped that this decision will deter Defendants

r.36.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pre-Issue Part 36 Offers The recent confusion caused by the decision in Udogaranya v Nwagw [2010] EWHC 90186 (Costs) regarding the costs
