REASONS FOR JUDGMENT
(Delivered from the Bench at Toronto, Ontario on
Friday, November 12, 1999)
STRAYER J.A.:
[1] We are all of the view that this appeal should be dismissed. We find no reviewable error in the learned Tax Court judge"s conclusions that the questions in issue in the examination for discovery were either not relevant to the issues as to costs in the appellant"s case or sought the disclosure of privileged material. In particular, we can see no relevance of these questions to the legal criteria on which solicitor-client costs are awarded, one of the forms of cost awards being sought by the appellant.
[2] The appeal will therefore be dismissed with costs.
