3. Fees.

ACT OF SEDERUNT, DATED MARCH 6, 1833, REGULATING THE FEES IN CIVIL BUSINESS OF SHERIFF OFFICERS IN SCOTLAND.*

The Lords of Council and Session having taken under consideration the Act of Sederunt of 27th January, 1830, for regulating the fees of Sheriff and Stewart-Clerks; also a note presented to the Court on the part of the procurators before the Sheriff Courts of Perth and Dundee, and the table of fees proposed by the Sheriffs named by the Court, under the provisions of the Act of 6th Geo. IV. c. 23.,† to be adopted for regulating the fees of procurators before the Sheriff and Stewart Courts; -They resolve to authorise the said table of fees to be acted on as an interim table and rule of charge; reserving for future consideration, how far it ought to receive the sanction of the Court as a permanent rule of charge; and reserving also to His Majesty's Advocate, and all concerned, their objections to the same: And the Lords do therefore, in terms of the said statute, hereby enact and declare, that from and after the 12th day of May next, the table of fees proposed by the said Sheriffs for regulating the fees and charges of practitioners, and also of officers in the Sheriff and Stewart Courts, and a copy of which is hereunto annexed, and is authenticated by the subscription of the Lord President, shall be held and acted on as the interim rule of charge, by all the procurators and practitioners in the several Sheriff and Stewart Courts of Scotland, and that for one year, until the 12th day of May, 1834,+ and direct the several Sheriffs and Stewarts to report to the Court the effect and operation of this regulation.
