The court released a decision allowing the appeal and awarding the appellant $15,000 in agreed costs for the appeal.
The parties were invited to make written submissions on the costs of the original application.
The applicant sought $15,000, while the respondent sought costs on a substantial or partial indemnity basis, citing an informal settlement offer and the improper naming of condominium directors as individual respondents.
The court found that while the applicant had a technical victory regarding the status certificate, the practical result favoured the respondent.
Consequently, the court ordered that each party bear its own costs of the original application.
