On an indemnity taxation arising from statutory intervention, claimed rates and attendances are permissible if they are reasonable and supported by evidence; where the objector fails to establish that work was merely clerical or that hours are unsupported or implausible, the taxation stands; where hours are excessive or unsupported, the Master will reduce the allowed time. The review therefore dismisses most challenges but reduces specific time allowances where unsupported.
