Statutory text

The Bailiff's Process Service and Receipt Book (Form P, Appendix E, page 497), is retained ; but with respect to the 13th column of that form the money returned by the bailiff should be re-entered in Register G, unless handed over at once to the party or lawyer. (Circular No. 1177, dated 17th September 1885.) In the case of expenses of witnesses sent to or received from, other Courts, the necessary information can be easily shown in the Registers G, H. Where any sum on account of expenses is paid to a witness in Court in the course of the suit or proceeding, and a receipt is taken there and then and filed in the record no entry need be made in Registers G, H. The few instances, covered by paragraph 77, Chapter VII, page 24, should be shown in the Registers G, H.
