Cohen J's judgment is long (48 pages, 288 paragraphs). This is unsurprising in circumstances where the litigation lasted over 3 years, where the court heard from 12 witnesses (including H and W), where hand-writing experts where asked to assess various documents produced by H (and his team) which themselves required translation and where orders had to be obtained on behalf of W for documentation to be produced by H's solicitors (producing previously withheld and relevant evidence). W's costs (including interest) were c. £2.5-£2.6m.
