In *Cardus and Cardus*, heard by Judge Hartnett, the dispute concerned the payment of the husband's costs by the wife. The specific nature of the underlying dispute that led to these cost orders is not detailed in the provided text.
The court was required to determine the quantum and conditions of the wife's liability for the husband's legal costs. This included the payment of a principal sum for costs, as well as reimbursement for necessary disbursements, with specific provisions for photocopying expenses.
