This decision addresses costs arising from a security for costs motion and an adjournment motion.
The court considered the length of costs submissions, the entitlement of a self-represented litigant to costs, and the factors under Rule 57.01.
The self-represented plaintiff was awarded $2,000 for a successful adjournment motion, but was ordered to pay the defendants $12,037.71 in substantial indemnity costs due to her obstructive conduct throughout the proceeding, which tended to lengthen it.
