The defendants abandoned their motion for security for costs of the appeal.
The plaintiffs sought costs of the abandoned motion.
The court found that the plaintiffs did not conceal assets and were entitled to costs.
The court reduced the quantum of costs claimed, noting that the self-represented plaintiff was not entitled to claim fees at a lawyer's rate despite his litigation experience.
Costs were fixed at $8,000 for fees, plus disbursements and GST.
