Applicant obtained the relief sought and, applying the ordinary rule that costs follow the event and without being persuaded the condition in the consent order justified departure, the respondents must pay the applicant's 2B costs of $5,258 plus disbursements of $546.87; leave is reserved for the applicant to seek a top-up of costs if it later establishes a contractual entitlement to indemnity costs in the substantive District Court proceeding.
