The Civil Procedure Rules 1998

Costs following allocation and re-allocation

44.11—(1) Any costs orders made before a claim is allocated will not be affected by allocation.

(2) Where—

(a) a claim is allocated to a track; and

(b) the court subsequently re-allocates that claim to a different track,

then unless the court orders otherwise, any special rules about costs applying—

(i) to the first track, will apply to the claim up to the date of re-allocation; and

(ii) to the second track, will apply from the date of re-allocation.

(Part 26 deals with the allocation and re-allocation of claims between tracks)
