British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Reed v. Amell, 2014 BCSC 1613 (CanLII):

As explained in Sovani v. Jin, 2006 BCSC 855, the assessment of the reasonableness of photocopying charges is not an arithmetical exercise but rather requires consideration of what is reasonable in the circumstances of the action. It has been described as a “rough and ready” calculation.
