The summons was dismissed because it was unilateral and misconceived: there was no affidavit or evidential basis showing the defendant had agreed to the proposed settlement or costs, payment by an insurer did not justify directing the defendant to pay, and costs orders are discretionary — accordingly no order for costs was made against the unrepresented and absent defendant.
