The Court exercised its discretion to depart from the ordinary rule that costs follow the event and ordered no costs to the respondent because the respondent's acquiescence and failure to challenge the judge's original judgment encouraged the appeals and the respondent's success resulted from the Court's view of that original judgment rather than from the respondent's arguments.
