Paragraph 4 Full and part remission of fees – disposable monthly income

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

(1)

No fee is payable under this Order if, at the time when the fee would otherwise be payable, the disposable monthly income of the party is £50 or less.

(2)

The maximum amount of fee payable is—

(a)

if the disposable monthly income of the party is more than £50 but does not exceed £210, an amount equal to one-quarter of every £10 of the party’s disposable monthly income, up to a maximum of £50; and

(b)

if the disposable monthly income is more than £210, an amount equal to £50 plus one-half of every £10 over £200 of the party’s disposable monthly income.

(3)

Where the fee that would otherwise be payable under this Order is greater than the maximum fee which a party is required to pay as calculated in sub-paragraph (2), the fee will be remitted to the amount payable under that sub-paragraph.
