Applicants ordered to pay insurer's costs of $7,373.11 after failing to prove motor vehicle accident occurred.
Following a preliminary issue hearing where it was determined that the applicants were not involved in a motor vehicle accident, the insurer sought its expenses.
The arbitrator found that the insurer was entirely successful and that the applicants' failure to make reasonable efforts to obtain new representation had prolonged the proceedings.
The applicants were ordered to jointly and severally pay the insurer's legal fees and disbursements, assessed at $7,373.11 based on Legal Aid Tariff rates.
