The judge has previously issued an asset freeze against Wright specifically so he can't evade paying costs, which will be massive in this case. Not only did COPA hire very good lawyers (their office is right next to the court) but the sheer volume of forged evidence required them to do large amounts of work. I got lunch with them after my testimony at their offices and Wright introduced a new pile of forgeries during the lunch itself, so in the end I didn't get to ask many questions as they had to go right back to work whilst eating.
As for perjury, I asked around and nobody seemed to know if that would happen. How CPS allocates its resources is something of a black box. At least, it's not automatic, although theoretically there's the possibility in the UK of a privately mounted criminal prosecution (it's not only the government that can initiate criminal cases).
