Following a successful motion for a Mareva injunction and Norwich order, the plaintiffs sought costs of $47,495.53 jointly and severally against the defendants.
The defendant Rosanna Boccia argued that costs against her should be in the cause, as she did not engage in the obstructionist tactics employed by her co-defendant son.
The court agreed that Rosanna played by the rules but noted she still lost the motion.
The court awarded total costs of $47,000, holding Rosanna jointly and severally liable for half ($23,500), while the co-defendants were held liable for the full amount.
