Because the summary judgment was correctly refused due to substantial factual issues that the plaintiff ought to have appreciated, the court declined to award summary judgment costs to either party (costs lie where they fall) and reduced the plaintiff's claimed time for statements of defence to 1.6 days as reasonable under r 14.2(c).
