The applicant was successful on motions for records and sole decision-making responsibility for the parties' children.
She sought costs on a substantial indemnity basis.
The respondent argued that he should not have to pay the applicant's legal fees and that each party should bear their own costs.
The court held that pursuant to section 46(1) of the Legal Aid Services Act, the applicant's legally-aided status did not reduce her entitlement to costs.
The respondent was ordered to pay costs fixed at $3,000.00.
