Costs Committee.
A report from the Costs Committee upon
the following queries was submitted, and the
replies were adopted :—
1. How should the costs be drawn of a
deed whereby in consideration of a sum of
£59 2s. Od. the use of a party wall was demised
and granted for the term of one life, subject
to covenants to construct a gutter to carry
off rain water, and to keep wall in repair ?
The reply was that the costs should be drawn
under the old system as altered by Schedule
II. of the General Order under the Solicitors
Remuneration Act.
2. Is a lessee liable to pay the costs of the
Solicitor for a mortgagee of
the
lessor's
interest, who has joined in the lease for the
purpose of enabling a lessor to make an
effective lease ?
The reply was that, in the
absence of an agreement to the contrary, the
lessee is not liable to pay the costs of the
mortgagee's Solicitor.
