Council lawyers today said the costs of the case were not yet available but legal experts said the bill to taxpayers was likely to be between £15,000 and £25,000.


Well this legal non-expert says that £50,000 would be a tad nearer. Let's hope any FOI act request clarifies it. :wink:

Have you guys not considered the possibility that the council didn't lose £15K that 3maxblack didn't pay them. Perhaps they just inflated the figure to stick it up 3maxblack even further? :lol: :lol: :lol:

It proved, either way they're in for a stiff one!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Methinks we should ask to see the fee notes under FOI, eh? :wink: :wink: :wink:
