ASSESSMENT OF COSTS – REASONS
MICHELLE LAMY, ASSESSMENT OFFICER
[1] On September 17, 2004, the Court dismissed with costs this application for judicial review. At the request of the respondent, the assessment of its bill of costs proceeded on the basis of the parties’ written submissions.
[2] After examining the applicant’s submissions, the respondent’s fees are set at $720.00 for items 4 (4 units) and 26 (2 units) of Tariff B. I have reduced the number of units requested for the assessment of costs to 2 since this is a relatively simple procedure. It should be noted that the value of the unit was amended on April 1, 2005; it was increased from $110 to $120. The fees have been calculated accordingly.
[3] As to the disbursements incurred in this case, they are allowed as requested in the amount of $112.09.
[4] The respondent’s costs are therefore assessed and allowed in the amount of $832.09. A certificate shall be issued for that amount.
DATED AT MONTRÉAL, THE 12th DAY OF JULY, 2005
