Article 11 Fees, Charges and Expenses

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

In the case of any difference as to fees, charges and expenses between any of the parties, the fees, charges and expenses shall upon application be taxed by the Registrar of the county court of the district where the distress is levied, and he may make such order as he thinks fit as to the costs of the taxation.

(2)

Where the court in which the taxation is conducted is not the court in which the bailiff was granted his certificate and the Registrar is of opinion on the taxation that there has been overcharging of such magnitude as to call into question the fitness of a bailiff to hold a certificate, the proper officer shall send to the court in which the bailiff was granted his certificate a copy of the taxed bill endorsed with a note of the Registrar’s opinion.

(3)

The receipt of a bill under paragraph (2), shall be treated as a complaint under rule 8(1).
