Section O21R46GProcedural
Costs
Full Text
The costs of any application made under rule 46A and of any proceeding arising therefrom or incidental thereto shall be in the discretion of the Court.
Plain English Summary
Leaves the award of costs in garnishee proceedings to the judicial discretion of the executing court.
Key Legal Elements
- Judicial Discretion: Costs awarded based on parties' bona fides.
- Protection for Innocent Garnishees: Garnishees who promptly comply are generally protected from adverse costs.
Practical Note
Garnishee Costs Practice: Where an innocent garnishee deposits the attached debt into court at the first hearing, costs are routinely awarded to the garnishee out of the fund before distribution to the decree-holder.
