This endorsement concerns the costs of a previous motion where Canadian Lakehead Exhibition (CLE) sought further documentary discovery from 1723022 Ontario Ltd. General Partner of TheSportsdome Limited Partnership (Sportsdome).
The court found mixed success on the underlying motion, with CLE being "more successful" but both parties contributing to the motion's length due to CLE's overly broad initial requests and Sportsdome's uncooperative stance.
Applying principles of reasonableness and proportionality, the court fixed costs at $1500.00, to be paid by Sportsdome to CLE, significantly less than CLE's requested $5,165.33.
