Counsel: |
Nicole A. Figueira, for the Petitioner Lola Gilmer, for the Respondent |
By the Court:
[1] I have considered the representations of both counsel in this matter. I will not reproduce the oft cited case law on this issue or the relevant Civil Procedure Rules.
[2] As is so often the case in family matters where there are a number of different issues, success was mixed. This often results in the parties bearing their own costs.
[3] However, the Petitioner did incur significant costs to get this matter before the court for a final resolution, some of which came about by agreement, and the rest by court order.
[4] Under the circumstances I am ordering the Respondent to contribute the sum of $750.00 towards the costs incurred by the Petitioner to bring this matter to a conclusion.
Gass, J.
