Because the respondents succeeded, costs were awarded to them; the court limited the award for step 23 to the amount invoiced to Legal Aid ($1,113) to avoid a windfall and allowed 0.2 of a day ($478) for preparation of a separate memorandum under r 14.5(1)(c) as a discrete step, resulting in a total costs award of $1,591.00 to be paid by the applicants to the respondents.
