Precedent H

Precedent H is a format used for preparing costs budgets i.e. it sets out a party’s incurred costs and estimated costs to trial. The Precedent H must be produced in the landscape format with an easily legible typeface. In substantial cases, the court may direct that budgets be limited initially to part only of the proceedings and subsequently extended to cover the whole proceedings. A budget must be dated and verified by a statement of truth signed by a senior legal representative of the party.
