This is a costs decision following a motion to change child support and access arrangements.
The applicant mother was substantially successful at trial, obtaining an order requiring the respondent father to continue paying $188.00 per month in child support with arrears fixed at $7,841.65.
The father's position on child support was unreasonable, and he rejected a reasonable settlement offer that matched the final court order.
The court awarded costs of $10,000.00 inclusive of fees, disbursements and HST, payable at $150.00 per month, recognizing the father's limited financial resources while sanctioning his unreasonable litigation conduct.
