Ms Justice Brett said the costs of the proceedings would be dealt with when the case comes up next month. The action, which will be before a jury and presided over by a judge of the High Court, was due to be heard in late June or early July but was put back after Mr McGregor succeeded in an application to adjourn the hearing to allow him take part in a UFC comeback bout against Michael Chandler in Las Vegas. That contest however, was cancelled after Mr McGregor broke his toe in training.
