Only the appellant succeeded on the appeal; absent agreement to let costs lie where they fell, the ordinary rule that the unsuccessful party pays applies. Predictability and expedition of costs determinations support awarding the appellant the claimed costs and disbursements, so the first respondent must pay $17,925 costs and $1,835 disbursements.
