Spanish term (edited): no se hace condena en costas
Selected

no order is made as to costs

> in the absence of any award, meaning each side to bear its own costs incurred.

Opposite: costs are awarded to one party against the other or (English High Court Norman-French terminology of yesteryear) - one side is 'condemned' in the costs.
Example sentence:

No Order as to Costs This means that each party has to pay their own legal fees. A court will usually make this order if the parties reach a settlement or abandon the case before it reaches hearing.

Thanks, Chris. Alas, I can't go on forever and am 'disappointed' you never pulled me up on the waffle of 'condemned in the costs', as sought by UK High Street Solicitors in High Court divorce cases up to 50 years ago.
