Following a wrongful dismissal judgment, the court released an addendum correcting the pre-judgment interest rate from the post-judgment rate to the proper statutory pre-judgment rate under the Courts of Justice Act.
On costs, the successful plaintiff sought substantial indemnity costs based on offers to settle, but the court held rule 49.10 was not triggered because the judgment was not as favourable as the operative offer.
The court nevertheless considered the offers under rule 49.13, but reduced costs to reflect the plaintiff's unsuccessful assault, human rights, punitive, and aggravated damages claims and to disallow certain disbursements.
Partial indemnity costs of $24,053.70 were awarded against one defendant only, with no costs for or against the bankrupt individual defendant.
