The application is based on grounds that the applicant is dissatisfied with the order made on taxation particularly on items 1 and of the Bill of Costs. The applicant contends that the Deputy Registrar proceeded on the wrong premises in treating the application for transfer of suit as a suit and that the Bill of Costs ought to have been taxed on the basis of an application. Therefore no getting up fees was payable in respect of the Bill of Costs.
