(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Sheriff Court Fees Order 1997 (“the 1997 Order”).
Article 2(3) inserts a new Article 3A in the 1997 Order which has the effect of providing that the sheriff clerk or the auditor of court (as appropriate) are not obliged to carry out any act which relates to payment of a fee without either, prior payment of the fee, or entering into an arrangement for payment for the fee.
Article 2(10), together with Schedules 1 to 3, specify new fee levels payable to the sheriff clerk or the auditor of court (as appropriate) in respect of certain matters in relation to proceedings in the sheriff court.
The fee levels for the period from 3rd December 2012 until 31st March 2013 are given effect by substituting the Table of Fees in the 1997 Order with the Table of Fees in Schedule 1 to this Order.
The fee levels for the period from 1st April 2013 until 31st March 2014 are given effect by substituting the Table of Fees in Schedule 1 with the Table of Fees in Schedule 2.
The fee levels from 1st April 2014 onwards are given effect by substituting the Table of Fees in Schedule 2 with the Table of Fees in Schedule 3.
Article 2 also makes amendments to articles 2, 4, 5, 7, 9 and 10 of the 1997 order in consequence of the amendment of fees referred to in Schedule 1 to the 1997 Order.
