This was a costs decision following dismissal of a defence summary judgment motion in a motor vehicle negligence action that alleged the claim was statute-barred.
The successful party sought $9,212.95 in costs, while the opposing parties argued that no costs should be awarded or, alternatively, that costs should be reduced.
The court held there was no reason to depart from the normal rule that partial indemnity costs follow the event.
After reviewing the bill of costs and responding submissions, the court fixed costs at $7,750 all inclusive.
