This decision addresses costs following a complex summary judgment regarding the sale of counterfeit headphones.
Computron Systems International Inc. (Computron) and Husain Ladhani et al. (Ladhani) both achieved partial success in their respective summary judgment motions against Techlogics Canada Inc. and Faisal Rashid (Techlogics), while Techlogics was largely unsuccessful.
The court considered factors under Rule 57.01(1) and Rule 49.10 (offers to settle), declining to impose Rule 49.10 sanctions due to the conditional nature of the offers involving multiple parties.
The court also addressed the applicability of the Rule 76 simplified procedure and the conduct of the parties.
Ultimately, Computron was awarded $18,000 in costs, apportioned equally between Ladhani and Techlogics.
Ladhani was awarded $16,000 in costs from Techlogics.
