Supreme Court dismissed appeal regarding state's liability for court costs when client voluntarily withdrew from proceedings.

The Supreme Court of Finland dismissed the appeal against the lower court's decision to deny the state's liability for court costs. The appellant had voluntarily withdrawn from the proceedings, and the opposing party argued that costs should be borne by the state due to the withdrawal. The court ruled that since the appellant initiated the withdrawal without a valid legal ground, the state was not liable for the resulting costs.
