The Plaintiff was awarded costs because it obtained the relief originally sought by the Discovery Summons, the summons was not premature given the clear deadline and the defendants' failure to seek more time as foreshadowed, and the court reduced claimed costs to reflect unnecessary duplication and use of two fee earners, assessing $45,000 for the Discovery Summons and $1,040 for the Consent Summons, payable forthwith by the 6th to 13th Defendants.
