After the owner sought to discontinue the action, the corporation sought to obtain from the owner
substantial indemnity costs in the
amount of $ 77,497 representing legal
fees, disbursements and HST expended
by the corporation in the litigation, including $ 20,000 spent in response to the owner's motion to produce and preserve the proxies.
Except for a typographical correction of a small
amount, Former Attorney —
by having good records and showing a willingness to take the stand for purposes of explaining the overall litigation efforts — won a
substantial fee award from Former Clients who, while disgruntled, apparently did not rebut that the performed services should be paid.
