The disbursements incurred by the defendant are justified by way of affidavit and deemed reasonable and necessary for the proceeding. They are therefore allowed in the total amount of $194.78. [4] The defendant’s bill of costs is allowed at $744.78. A certificate of assessment will be issued for this amount. “Johanne Parent” Assessment Officer Toronto, Ontario October 1, 2008 Certified true translation Johanna Kratz FEDERAL COURT SOLICITORS OF RECORD DOCKET: T-416-02 STYLE OF CAUSE: MICHEL LOLAENGA EDUNGU v.
