COUNTY COURTS

COMMON LAW AND EQUITABLE JURISDICTION.

RULES, ORDERS, AND FORMS

FOR REGULATING THE

PRACTICE OF THE COUNTY COURTS.

We, GEORGE LAKE RUSSELL, JOHN BURY DASENT, JOHN WORLLEDGE, RUPERT ALFRED KETTLE, and WILLIAM FURNER, being Judges of County Courts appointed to frame Rules and Orders for regulating the Practice of the Courts, and Forms of Proceedings therein, under the 32nd section of the County Courts Act, 1856, have, under the powers vested in us by the said Act and by the County Courts Act, 1865, and the County Courts Act, 1867, framed the following Rules, Orders, and Forms, and we do hereby certify the same to the Lord Chancellor accordingly.

1. The rules of practice which came into force in all County Courts on the 1st day of January, 1868, and are now in force in such Courts, may be cited as "The County Court Rules, 1868," and these rules may be cited as "The County Court Rules, 1870."

2. Process shall not be issued for service or execution unless the party at whose instance it is required to be issued shall give the Christian name and surname, description, and residence, or place of business of himself, and the surname, and, if known, the Christian name, and description, and also the residence of the party upon whom it is to be served, together with the name of the street and number of the house, if known, in which the party resides or carries on business; and every warrant shall have on it the name, address, and description of the plaintiff and defendant.

3. Upon transmission of the plaint note, with a request and a receipt (duly stamped where necessary) by a party to whose credit money has been paid into a Court, other than the Court within the district of which such party resides or carries on business, the registrar of the Court into which the money has been paid shall transmit such money to such party by registered post letter, enclosing a post office order less the cost of remittance, and such remittance shall be at the risk of the said party.

4. Where a person desires to enter a plaint in a Court within the district of which he does not reside, he may, instead of attending in person or by agent at the Court, transmit, free of cost, to the registrar the following:

(1.) Statement shewing the name, address, and description of the plaintiff and defendants, the cause of action, and the amount claimed, and where the claim exceeds 408., as many copies of the statement of the particulars or cause of action as there are defendants, and an additional copy to file.

(2.) A post office order for the fees payable upon the entry of the plaint.

(3.) An envelope addressed to himself, with a penny postage stamp

thereon.

And upon the receipt of the above the registrar shall enter the plaint and forward the plaint note to the plaintiff in the addressed envelope.

5. For the purpose of the two foregoing rules the several districts of the Metropolitan Courts shall be considered inter se as one district only. 6. The letter, Form No. 6 to the County Court Rules, 1868, need not be transmitted with a summons sent for service from one metropolitan Court to another.

the money shall not be paid out until after the return day, and then if any costs shall have been awarded to the defendant, such costs shall be deducted therefrom and be paid to the defendant.

Fees under Section 2 of the Act of 1867.

9. The fee of 18. for service of a summons issued under sect. 2 of the County Courts Act, 1867, and the fee of 18. for affidavit of the service, where the amount claimed exceeds 408., shall be paid by the plaintiff to the registrar at the time of the entry of the plaint in respect of each defendant to be served, and where the summons is to be served in a

foreign district be accounted for to the treasurer, who will allow to the registrar such affidavit fees as he may have repaid to plaintiffs, in cases where the summonses have not been served.

10. The high bailiff is entitled to 18. for endeavouring to serve the summons, even should he not succeed.

11. The amount claimed is to be inserted in the letter sent to the high bailiff of the foreign Court with the summons for service, according to the form in the schedule.

12. The affidavit of service of a summons under section 2 of the County Courts Act, 1867, shall be according to the form in the schedule.

Attorney's Costs.

13. Costs in plaints for the recovery of tenements and in actions of replevin may, where the fees of Court are paid on 51. or upwards, be allowed to attorneys upon the scale applicable to actions on contract where the amount claimed exceeds 201., if the judge shall so order.

14. In actions of tort, where the damages claimed exceed 207., the plaintiff, if successful, shall, if the judge shall so order, be entitled to recover costs, according to the scale relating to actions of tort above 201., although less than 201. be recovered, and the defendant, if successful, and the judge shall so order, shall in all such cases be entitled to recover costs according to the said scale.

15. No costs shall be allowed to an attorney in actions under sect. 2 of the County Courts Act, 1867, unless the particulars of the plaintiff's demand be signed by such attorney; nor shall the total costs to be allowed to an attorney in actions under this section, where the sum claimed exceeds 40s., and does not exceed 51, be more than 5s, for all or any of the following acts: viz., preparing affidavit, swearing and filing, notice of mode of payment, copy and service of summons, affidavit of service with copy of summons annexed, attending to file, and entering up judgment by default.
