Cappy in fact this spending is illegal as far as I can see if a motion approving this spending was not passed by the OC.
80D Legal action to be approved by general meeting
(1) An owners corporation or executive committee of an owners corporation must not seek legal advice or the provision of any other legal services, or initiate legal action, for which any payment may be required unless a resolution is passed at a general meeting of the owners corporation approving the seeking of the advice or services or the taking of that action.
So unless a motion was passed authorizeing this spending the OC have no liability to pay. The EC do not have the power to initiate this spending
BUT The SM and whoever authorized this on the EC are liable for the costs incurred.
