The applicant was successful on a motion to relocate with the parties' children and sought costs of $7,000.00.
The respondent argued for no costs or a reduced amount of $1,500.00, citing the financial impact on his ability to exercise parenting time.
The court found the applicant's claimed costs excessive, disallowed fees for 'advising counsel', and reduced the preparation time.
Costs were awarded to the applicant on a partial indemnity basis, fixed at $3,144.00 plus HST.
