The court considered written submissions on costs following a motion and cross-motion concerning custody, access, child support, property, and a restraining order.
While success on custody and access timesharing was divided, the Respondent was successful on final decision-making authority, interim child support, and the restraining order.
Neither party filed formal offers to settle.
Applying Rule 24(1) of the Family Law Rules and considering the relevant factors, the court found the Respondent had greater success and awarded her $1,500 in costs, all-inclusive, to be paid by the Applicant within 30 days.
