Taxing Office Procedure.

THE Taxing Masters have, at the request of

the Council, amended the form of affidavit of

credits

in Solicitor and client

taxations.

Same may now be sworn at any time after

the Bill of Costs is furnished, instead of

waiting till the taxation is completed.

The Solicitor for the Costs will, accordingly,

be enabled to have the credits ascertained at

the time of taxation on due proof being given

to the Taxing Master that a copy of the

affidavit has been duly served, and that a

full opportunity of checking same has been

given to the other side.
