Simon Browne QC successfully upheld the Part 36 costs order in favour of Alan Yentob in the Court of Appeal. Mr Justice Mann had made no order for costs after Mr Yentob was awarded £85,000 but failed to beat Mirror Group’s Part 36 offer. The justice of the case demanded that Mr Yentob was not to be penalised in costs.
