All Spice Cottage on the Cambridge Beaches property in Somerset constitutes widow Roberta Trott's premises.

Mrs. Justice Wade-Miller reserved judgment after a civil hearing this week which also dealt with who would pay legal costs.

"This is going to be very, very short...soon,'' she told lawyers Georgia Marshall, who appeared for Mrs. Trott, and Christian Luthi, who appeared for plaintiffs Frascati Hotel and Cambridge Beaches.

She added: "In due course the Registrar will indicate when. This is open court so I do suppose it will be conducted that way. What is to be specified is what constitutes the premises and costs.'' Last week Mrs. Justice Wade-Miller ruled Mrs. Trott had the right to live in the home she shared with her late husband, Thaddeus, who died in 1997 and was a former president of the cottage colony.

Mrs. Trott beat the $225,000 case for revenue the company claimed was lost after she stayed in the property after her husband's death.

Mrs. Justice Wade-Miller, in effect, agreed that Mr. Trott had made an agreement with the plaintiffs that she would continue to occupy the property for five years after his death.

In the hearing, Mrs. Marshall argued it would be "unfair and unjust'' for Mrs. Trott to only have the lease from October, 1998, when legal proceedings started.

She should also not have to pay rent because she was denied access to parts of the cottage and had to put up with noise.

Mrs. Trott also complained she was denied free meals in the cottage colony's dining area -- which she believed to be part of the agreement her husband had made and was therefore a violation.
