ASSESSMENT OF COSTS - REASONS

MICHELLE LAMY, ASSESSMENT OFFICER

[1]                On May 16, 2005, we sent a letter to the appellant requiring it to file its written submissions against the respondents' bill of costs. To date, there has not been a reply to our request.

[2]                In the circumstances, the respondents' bill of costs is assessed as submitted since all of the claims are reasonable and consistent with the application of Tariff B in general.

[3]                A certificate of assessment is therefore issued in the amount of $1,575.00.

DATED AT MONTRÉAL, THE 13th DAY OF JULY 2005.
