The court determined the appropriate quantum of costs following a motion where the successful party sought partial indemnity costs.
The responding party challenged the hourly rate claimed, time billed for preparation of an affidavit, and charges related to cross-examinations that did not proceed.
The court accepted the challenges regarding the hourly rate and certain cross‑examination-related charges but rejected the challenge to the affidavit preparation time, finding it necessary for the motion.
Costs were recalculated based on a reduced hourly rate and adjusted disbursements.
The court ordered payment of revised costs inclusive of disbursements.
