The court varied the costs order nisi because the plaintiff unreasonably raised and pursued the Collateral Application in a manner that wasted court resources and contradicted his own pleadings, so that justice required the defendant to recover the costs of the remainder of the O 14A Summons with certificate for counsel to be summarily assessed on paper; the plaintiff's conduct and the objectives of the rules justified the adverse costs order.
