ASSESSMENT OF COSTS - REASONS
FRANÇOIS PILON
Assessment officer
[1] On June 7, 2004, the Court made an order under section 231.7 of the Income Tax Act, with costs. Julie Mousseau, the applicant's counsel, filed her bill of costs on September 17, 2004 and asked that the assessment proceed on the basis of written submissions.
[2] A schedule for filing submissions was established and conveyed to the parties on September 28, 2004. No submission has been filed to this date. In view of the foregoing, we are prepared to assess the costs in favour of the applicant.
[3] It seems reasonable to us to allow the applicant the sum of $1,448.26 as fees for items 1, 13, 14, 25 and 26. We also think that the disbursements incurred for photocopy costs and bailiffs' fees are justified in the affidavit in support and will be allowed as submitted.
[4] The applicant's bill of costs is assessed and allowed in the amount of $1,682.69. A certificate shall issue for that amount.
