[ 1 ] The taxation of costs of the Respondent’s Bill of Costs was held on October 23, 2012, by conference call. It followed a Judgment of the Honourable Madam Justice Woods dated September 17, 2010.

He further stated that he was taking no position with respect to the Respondent’s Bill of Costs. [ 3 ] Ms. Irving stated that there was nothing unusual about the Bill of Costs. She submitted that the amounts claimed were in accordance with the Tariff. [ 4 ] I have reviewed the Bill of Costs. The amounts claimed for counsel fees are in accordance with

I am satisfied that the disbursements claimed were necessary for the conduct of the proceeding and the amount of $535.29 is allowed.
