ASSESSMENT OF COSTS – REASONS

MICHELLE LAMY, ASSESSMENT OFFICER

[1]       This is the assessment of costs to be paid to the respondent following the judgement dated January 17, 2006. As requested, the assessment was made without the personal appearance of the parties. Up to now, we have not received any answer to our letter dated May 2, 2006 establishing a timetable for written submissions.

[2]       In the circumstances, the respondent’s fees are awarded in an amount of $1,120.08 for the following items of Tariff B: 19 (5 units), 22 (2 units x 0.667 hours), 25 (1 unit) and 26 (2 units). I reduced the number of units for the assessment to 2 because it was not contested. As far as the disbursements are concerned in this file, they are awarded as requested in an amount of $145.36.

[3]       In conclusion, the respondent’s costs are assessed in an amount of $1,265.44. A certificate is issued for this amount.
