I indicated that if costs could not be agreed I would receive memoranda from the parties. [2] I have received a memorandum from counsel for the respondent. [3] In a minute of 7 September 2006, Winkelmann J directed that the appeal be in Category 2B for the purposes of costs. [4] Counsel for the respondent's memorandum seeks costs in the sum of $5,400 on the basis that those are the costs properly payable in accordance with Category 2B. [5] No submissions have been filed for the appellant despite more than ample time (well in excess of the time limited by my judgment) having been afforded. [6] I therefore direct that the appellant pay the respondent's costs in the sum of $5,400.
