Court File and Parties
SUPERIOR COURT OF JUSTICE - ONTARIO
RE: Yvonne Michelle Shah, Applicant
AND:
Ronald Omar Shah, Respondent
BEFORE: Justice J.R. Sproat
COUNSEL: Mathew Fordjour, for the Applicant
Ronald Shah the Respondent is self-represented
HEARD: March 16, 2018
COSTS ENDORSEMENT
1Ms. Shah was successful on Mr. Shah’s motion heard March 16, 2018 and is presumptively entitled to costs.
2Ms. Shah seeks costs of $3,555 on a partial indemnity basis and $4,425 on a substantial indemnity basis, both inclusive of disbursements and H.S.T.
3Mr. Shah suggested mediation in his May 17, 2017 email. Ms. Shah acted unreasonably by failing to respond given that she had consented to the court order that required the parties to mediate.
4If Ms. Shah had responded positively, this motion would have been avoided. As such, I award Ms. Shah $1,000 in costs, inclusive of H.S.T., payable within 30 days.
J.R. SPROAT
