The court revised its initial peremptory 'no order' and concluded that fairness and respective responsibility required allocating costs: no order as to costs of the mutual strike-out applications themselves, but costs of the plaintiff's claim are payable to the defendant and costs of the defendant's counterclaim are payable to the plaintiff, each to be taxed if not agreed, because the claim and counterclaim differed materially in value and responsibility for delay and prior settlement conduct justified this allocation.
