This is an appeal from the taxation of costs to the plaintiff. A dispute over the payment of sick pay under a labor relations contract between the plaintiff and members of the defendant union was referred for arbitration to the state board of mediation and arbitration, which rendered its award in favor of the men. Upon application of plaintiff, under §
"In statutory proceedings as to which there is no provision of law or statute absolutely giving costs to the prevailing party, or as to which, if a judgment for costs is authorized, no specific costs are prescribed, and to which the statute regulating the costs taxable to a party who succeeds in a civil cause does not apply, the taxation of costs is a matter of discretion."Welles v. Schroeder,
The appeal is accordingly sustained and the taxation of costs vacated.
