The application was an abuse of process in context of the looming appeal and duplicated materials; both parties deployed excessive unnecessary materials but the plaintiff pursued an abusive summons; therefore a global approach awarding indemnity costs with apportionment was appropriate, and the plaintiff was ordered to pay 50% of the defendant's costs on the indemnity basis.
