Following a nine-day trial in which the self-represented applicant's claims were dismissed, the court determined the issue of costs.
The applicant had significantly protracted the proceedings by making outrageous, unsubstantiated allegations of fraud, conspiracy, and human trafficking against the respondent, her daughter, and numerous lawyers.
Finding her conduct to be an abusive attack on innocent parties without any factual foundation, the court awarded full indemnity costs of $34,674.05 against the applicant.
