Paragraph 32.1A Time for lodging account of expensesF1
Scotland
A party found entitled to expenses must lodge an account of expenses in process—
not later than four months after the final judgment; or
at any time with permission of the sheriff, but subject to such conditions, if any, as the sheriff thinks fit to impose.
Where an account of expenses is lodged by the Scottish Legal Aid Board in reliance on regulation 39(2)(a) of the Civil Legal Aid (Scotland) Regulations 2002, paragraph (1)(a) applies as if the period specified there is 8 months.
In this rule, “final judgment” has the meaning assigned by section 136(1) of the Courts Reform (Scotland) Act 2014.
