Following the settlement of a motion to change child and spousal support, both parties sought full recovery of their costs.
The moving party sought to terminate spousal support, while the responding party initially refused to acknowledge the moving party's right to a review.
The court found divided success and criticized both parties for unreasonable behavior and lack of civility.
Finding that the responding party's initial aggressive position tipped the scale slightly in the moving party's favour, the court awarded the moving party fixed costs of $2,500.
