What is the Applicant’s Costs Outline?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Bond v. Bond, 2012 ONSC 5003 (CanLII):

9 I have reviewed the Applicant’s Costs Outline and find nothing remarkable about it. As a general rule, “it is not the role of the court to second guess the time spent by counsel unless it is manifestly unreasonable in the sense that the total time spent is clearly excessive or the matter has been overly lawyered”: see Basedo v. University Health Network, [2002] O.J. No 597 (S.C.J.). In my view this is not a case where the time spent by counsel, or the rates charged, are manifestly unreasonable.
