Power to order further security or payment
Full Text
Where at any time after the admission of an appeal but before the transmission of the copy of the record, except as aforesaid, to the Supreme Court, such security appears inadequate, or further payment is required for the purpose of translating, transcribing, printing, indexing or transmitting the copy of the record, except as aforesaid, the Court may order the appellant to furnish, within a time to be fixed by the Court, other and sufficient security, or to make, within like time, the required payment.
Plain English Summary
Authorizes the High Court, after admission but before record transmission, to demand additional security or supplementary payments if the existing security is inadequate or preparation costs exceed initial estimates.
Key Legal Elements
- Interim Window: Between admission (Rule 8) and actual transmission to Supreme Court.
- Two Trigger Conditions: (1) Security for costs becomes inadequate; (2) Translation/printing expenses exceed deposit.
- Time-Bound Mandate: Appellant directed to rectify deficiency within a stipulated timeframe.
Practical Note
Timely Rectification of Cost Deficits: 1. High Court Seisin until Transmission: Until the physical/electronic record is transmitted to the Supreme Court Registry, the High Court retains ministerial jurisdiction under Rule 10 to ensure all printing and translation bills are cleared and adequate security is available for the respondent. 2. Risk of Default: Failure to deposit supplementary funds within the granted period attracts the severe stay sanctions of Rule 11.
