The proceedings became moot when Mr Pepper made the concessions in the terms of reliefs sought by Pepper Finance. Brian Conroy SC, appearing for Pepper Finance, said an order for costs should be made against Mr Pepper. This, Mr Justice Cregan said, does not necessarily mean Pepper Finance and Mr Wigglesworth are entitled to legal costs. He noted Mr Pepper gave the undertakings sought by Pepper Finance, something the court must have regard for. He noted that Mr Pepper later offered to pay €2,500 in costs, which Pepper Finance agreed to and, in turn, intended to donate the money to charity.
