Omnilex headnote

Mootness after settlement; where the parties settle the underlying dispute and also regulate costs and indemnities, the appeal loses its object and is struck out of the docket. In such circumstances the court does not levy judicial fees or costs and does not award party indemnities, the settlement having exhausted the procedural interest in a judicial determination.

Key legal question

Whether the appeal remained admissible after the parties settled the expropriation compensation dispute.

Extracted holding

The appeal had become moot and was therefore struck out of the docket.

Extracted reasoning

Because the parties concluded a settlement covering both the expropriation indemnity and costs/party compensation, no live dispute remained for adjudication.

Key legal question

Whether court fees, costs, and party indemnities should be awarded despite the settlement.

Extracted holding

No court fees or costs were charged, and no party indemnities were awarded.

Extracted reasoning

The parties had also agreed on costs and party indemnities, so the court left each side to bear its own expenses.
