Procedure – Costs – Costs caused unreasonably or vexatiously
(Rules of Procedure of the Court of First Instance, Art. 87(3), second subpara.)
The second subparagraph of Article 87(3) of the Rules of Procedure of the Court of First Instance must be applied and an official
ordered to pay all the costs of the proceedings where he has put forward particularly unreasonable challenges largely based
on conjecture and insinuations which are not relevant to the subject-matter of the action or any other pleadings, and from
which certain passages have had to be removed because of their defamatory nature.
