Ho v Adelekun: set-off is the same as enforcement under QOCS
- FOIL
This appeal concerned the operation of Qualified One-Way Cost Shifting (“QOCS”) under the CPR and what effect it has on the separate power to set off a defendant’s costs against a claimant’s costs. QOCS applies to most personal injury claims and ordinarily has the effect of limiting the amount of legal costs payable by a claimant to a defendant where a claimant loses on part or all of their claim.
