The applicant sought costs following a motion where he was granted sole custody of the parties' child and the respondent's access was suspended, although his motion for contempt was dismissed.
The applicant sought $15,000 out of a total bill of $23,780.51.
The court found the applicant was the successful party, had made a favourable offer to settle, and behaved reasonably.
The court awarded the applicant $15,000 in costs, finding the amount fair, proportionate, and reasonable given the complexity and significance of the issues.
