The Gazette of the Incorporated Law Society of Ireland

[December, 1942

The words in brackets are no longer a

correct statement of the law in England

since the above-mentioned decision, which

it is submitted would be followed by the

Irish Courts. A firm of Solicitors having

delivered to a client a Bill of Costs for a

gross sum,

subsequently at

the client's

request, as they were obliged to do, de

livered an itemised Bill. This Bill taxed to

an amount greater than the gross sum and

it was held by the Court of Appeal that the

Solicitors were entitled to recover from the

client the full amount of the detailed Bill as

taxed.
