A corresponding application of Rules 125 and 131 RoP, which govern the procedure for setting damages and compensation and expressly provide for interest, is ruled out.
No provision for judge-rapporteur to grant leave to appeal from a cost decision.
According to Rule 221 RoP, a party adversely affected by a decision referred to in Rule 157 RoP may, within 15 days of notification of the relevant decision of the Court of First Instance, file an application for leave to appeal with the Court of Appeal.
