Following a trial to determine the Gross Rentable Area of a leased premises, both parties claimed success and sought partial indemnity costs.
The court found the defendant to be the successful party, as the determined area was significantly higher than the plaintiff's position, resulting in substantial additional rent over the lease term.
The court awarded the defendant costs but reduced the claimed amount due to excessive photocopying disbursements and time spent on an unsuccessful argument regarding BOMA standards.
