Judge orders Tibone to pay costs

The trial was due to start yesterday but could not because the attorney representing Tibone, Lawrence Lekalake, Liyanda Lekalake and 21st Century Holdings (Pty) was indisposed.

Judge David Newman then rescheduled the case for November 28 - December 9. "The defendants shall bear the costs of the plaintiffs, occasioned by the postponement, such costs to include the costs of two counsel, inclusive of any agreed collapsed fees," Newman ordered.
