Costs awarded on the standard scale applicable to an originating application; indemnity costs and any uplift were declined because the case did not warrant departure from scale despite some improper allegations; an additional scale step was allowed to account for time spent addressing those allegations; the applicant's claimed joint memorandum time was reduced from 0.4 to 0.2 days yielding scale costs of $16,969 and disbursements approved.
