Following a 16-day family law trial with divided success, the court determined the appropriate costs award.
The respondent father was more successful on the parenting issues, which consumed the majority of the trial time, while the applicant mother was more successful on the financial issues.
Applying the Family Law Rules and considering the parties' delicate financial situation, the court ordered the applicant to pay $22,000 in partial indemnity costs to the respondent.
