Bradley v. Bradley [2008] EWCA Civ 629
W, who had been ordered to pay H a lump sum, would be entitled to ask for costs already awarded against him to be set off and deducted from the lump sum, but her obligation to pay the rest of the lump sum could not be stayed pending further litigation and possible future costs orders. Security for costs could be ordered in Matrimonial Causes Act applications.
