Decision on the bill of costs, taxed at the amount of $4,486.67, Reg, In its judgment rendered on March 20, 2003, the Court awarded costs the respondents who filed their Bill of Costs on April 10, 2003. The appellant filed its objections on April 21, 2003. Having reviewed the arguments advanced by the parties and the litigious items, I am taxing the costs as follows: - Preparation of factum (Tariff of Fees, Part I, item 3(d)(i)): The Tariff provides that the amount of $425 for the preparation of a factum "is subject to increase, in special cases, at the discretion of the Registrar." The respondents argue that the present case is a special case in view of the lengthy allegations of the appellant covering events over a period of ten years. However, the Court awarded party and party costs. The registrar must exercise her discretion within the bounds set by the Tariff of Fees, however inadequate they may appear. The amount claimed by the respondents cannot be accepted in this context. - Hearing of the appeal (Tariff of Fees, Part I, item 3(g)): the same reasoning applies and the amounts applicable are those provided for in the Tariff of Fees: $1,800 for attendance at the hearing and $600 for the junior counsel. Disbursements: The amount claimed for Quicklaw ($570) is disallowed as searches are part of the preparation of a file and are already covered under preparation of factum. The Bill of Costs is taxed accordingly. Allowed in part |
