    Award costs rejected

    Hello
    I have just finished my ET and I lost... it was for unfair dismissal. It was very stressful. Immediately after the decision was read out the respondents party requested a costs award. Sorry if that not the correct term. Luckily the judge rejected it citing a number of reasons.

    My question is, can that be appealed by the respondent?
    Thanks

    Re: Award costs rejected

    Hello Mary.
    The simple answer to your question is "No".
    ET Judges have very wide ranging discretion about costs.
    I have never known them to award costs against individuals except where the case has been brought vexatiously, unreasonably or without hope of success.
    Once the decision has been made, you're off the hook.
