Respondent
REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT
(Delivered from the Bench at Ottawa, Ontario, on March 10, 2009)
[1] We have not been persuaded that the discretionary orders of Justice Mactavish were made on the basis of any improper principle. The appeal will be dismissed without costs. The cross-appeal will be dismissed with costs fixed in the amount of $2,500 (inclusive of disbursements). The judgment will be stayed for 30 days to give the respondent time to seek the exemptions required to permit the costs to be paid.
[2] As to the suggestion that the order relating to the solicitor and client communications are too broadly worded, that is a matter that can be dealt with in case management.
