This is a costs endorsement from the Court of Appeal for Ontario following a successful appeal by the appellant, Candace Taylor, in a constructive dismissal action.
The Court had previously set aside the motion judge's dismissal of the action and the original costs order.
This endorsement addresses the costs of the underlying motion.
The appellant sought $15,000 or, alternatively, partial indemnity costs of $10,533.07.
The respondent argued for no costs.
The Court awarded the appellant partial indemnity costs of $8,500, finding this amount to be fair, reasonable, and proportionate, while accounting for some duplication in counsel's efforts.
