The applicant sought costs following a successful family law proceeding regarding child support and section 7 expenses.
The applicant was wholly successful in obtaining updated support orders, while the respondent opposed the request and behaved unreasonably throughout the proceedings.
The court awarded costs to the applicant in the amount of $5,000.00, payable forthwith, after considering the factors under Rule 24 of the Family Law Rules, including the applicant's reasonable conduct, the respondent's unreasonable opposition, and the applicant's attempt to settle the matter.
