The Court of Appeal allowed the appeal, set aside Sears J's order and remitted the matter to the Court of First Instance for determination of costs because Sears J proceeded on a material and substantial factual error (incorrectly treating the costs as trivial), rendering his refusal to determine the costs and his dismissal of the originating summons an unsustainable exercise of discretion.
