78Costs in police tort claims

78 Costs in police tort claims If the court finds on a police tort claim that the State is not liable for a police tort because of section 74(2), the State is not entitled to recover any costs from, or to be awarded any costs against, the person who made the claim or the police officer or protective services officer who committed the police tort. Section 74(2) provides that the State is not liable if it establishes on a police tort claim that the conduct giving rise to the police tort was serious and wilful misconduct by the police officer or protective services officer who committed the police tort.
