The applicants brought a motion to compel the respondent to answer questions refused on examination for discovery and to enforce a prior costs award.
The respondent paid the costs award two days before the hearing, rendering the enforcement aspect moot.
The court ordered the respondent to answer 15 of the refused questions and upheld 11 refusals, directing a follow-up examination by videoconference.
The court awarded the applicants full indemnity costs thrown away for the enforcement motion and partial indemnity costs for the divided success on the refusals motion, totaling $12,942.36.
