In re Carey

In re Carey
New York Court of Chancery · Decided May 5, 1846
6 Sarat. Ch. Sent. 13; 1846 N.Y. LEXIS 218

Counsel

J. S. Frost, for petitioner.

In re Carey

Opinion of the Court

Application for an extra allowance of costs, upon the execution of a commission of lunacy, beyond the maximum fixed by the 162d rule. Decided that the expense of getting the solicitor’s bill of costs taxed, in such a case was unnecessary where the solicitor intends to claim over $50; as the court must in every such case examine the bill of costs for itself to see what necessity there is, for any extra allowance. Order allowing the payment of $606, in addition to the $50, but nothing more.
