The Crabtree Principle: counterclaims - If counterclaimant going beyond self defence and launching a claim of their own, court will usually order no security or that both sides put up security.
'Costs of and caused by' has the effect that where the court makes this order on an application, the party in whose favour the costs order is made is entitled to the costs of preparing for and attending the application and also the costs of any consequential issues.
