Rule 264 Costs of officers charged with execution of writs or other processI1
England and Wales
This rule applies where an enforcement officer, or other officer charged with execution of the writ or other person—
is required under section 184(2) of the 1986 Act to deliver up goods or money; or
has under section 184(3) of the 1986 Actf1 deducted costs from the proceeds of an execution or money paid to that officer or that person (as the case may be).
The administrator may require in writing that the amount of the enforcement officer’s or other officer’s bill of costs be decided by detailed assessment and where such a requirement is made, rule 263(4) applies.
Where, in the case of a deduction of the kind mentioned in paragraph (1)(b), any amount deducted is disallowed at the conclusion of the detailed assessment proceedings, the enforcement officer must as soon as reasonably practicable pay a sum equal to that disallowed to the administrator for the benefit of the investment bank’s estate.
