Synthèse Legislator

Généré par l'IA

The highest court reviewed a decision where a client, condemned to pay court costs from an appeal, had the professional fees owed to their counsel taxed by the First President of the Court of Appeal for collection. The Court found that the relevant procedural articles require the amount of costs to be verified by the court secretary and the opposing party to be called upon to present observations before the magistrate issues a ruling on the taxation of costs by order. Since the record did not show this mandatory verification or the client's opportunity to comment, the order taxing the fees violated the cited procedural texts, leading to the annulment of the order and referral of the matter to a different Court of Appeal for a new ruling.
