Following a motion where the applicant mother was largely successful in obtaining child support and permission to relocate, she sought costs of $5,000.
The respondent father did not file responding costs submissions.
The court noted divided success, as the mother initially sought support for six children but reduced it to three due to insufficient evidence.
The father's failure to provide financial disclosure was an aggravating factor.
The court awarded the mother $3,500 in costs, directing that 90% ($3,150) be enforceable by the Family Responsibility Office as it related to the support issue.
