COURT PROCEDURES RULES 2006 - REG 1855

Costs—review by court

    (1)     A party dissatisfied with the decision of the registrar on reconsideration under rule 1854 may apply to the court to review the decision.

    (2)     The application must—

        (a)     give the number of each item in the bill of costs to which the decision objected to relates; and

        (b)     state briefly, but specifically, the grounds for objecting to the decision; and

        (c)     state briefly the reasons for the grounds; and

        (d)     state the decision sought from the court in relation to each objection.

    (3)     The party must file the application, and serve a stamped copy of it on all other parties to the assessment, not later than 14 days after the day the registrar made the decision on reconsideration under rule 1854.

    (4)     Unless the court otherwise orders, on the review a party must not—

        (a)     present evidence; or

        (b)     raise any ground of objection not stated in a statement of objection or raised before the registrar.

Note     Pt 6.2 (Applications in proceedings) applies to an application for an order otherwise ordering.

    (5)     On the review, the court may—

        (a)     exercise all the powers of the registrar in relation to the items of the bill of costs under objection; and

        (b)     amend or set aside the registrar's decision; and

        (c)     return any item in the bill of costs to the registrar for reconsideration, whether with or without directions to the registrar; and

        (d)     make any other order it considers appropriate.

    (6)     Unless the court otherwise orders, the review does not operate as a stay of the registrar's decision.
