ASSESSMENT OF COSTS - REASONS
SUZANNE DAVID, ASSESSMENT OFFICER
[1] On October 12, 2001, the Court dismissed with costs the motion by the objector Karine Verreault objecting to the seizure in execution of movable property made on May 30, 2001. In its order the Court stated:
[TRANSLATION]
Orders the objector to pay all costs, which must be paid without delay.
[2] On December 20, 2001, Jean-Robert Noiseux filed the judgment creditor's bill of costs and asked that it be assessed without a personal appearance by the parties.
[3] Marc Delisle, counsel for the objector, was invited by letter to submit his comments in opposition to the bill of costs by May 29, 2002, at the latest and Jean-Robert Noiseux had until June 11 to file his response.
[4] On May 24 the judgment creditor, in view of ongoing negotiations with the objector, asked that the deadline for filing the objector's written submissions be extended by one month: it was extended to June 26, 2002.
[5] As no written submissions were received from the objector within the deadlines laid down by the Registry, and the judgment creditor on July 3 last confirmed that no settlement had been reached, we are accordingly proceeding with the assessment of costs.
[6] After reviewing the file and the evidence submitted in support of its bill by the judgment creditor, we award the fees and disbursements as requested, except for item 26, in which the number of units is reduced to two, as the assessment of costs was not disputed.
[7] The judgment creditor's costs are accordingly assessed and allowed in the amount of $1,759.25 and a certificate is issued for that amount.
