The Applicant sought $1,010 in costs as the successful party to a motion brought by the Respondent.
The Respondent argued against a costs order due to his inability to pay and the Applicant's representation by a staff lawyer at ILSO.
The court considered the Respondent's delay in complying with a previous order to collapse his RRSP and apply proceeds to an outstanding costs award.
Despite the Applicant's claim for costs based on counsel's time, the court awarded partial costs, fixing them at $600, to be added to existing outstanding costs.
The Respondent was also prohibited from bringing a motion to change until all costs are paid in full.
