Section - 20. Rules as to cost of processes - Confirmation and publication of rules.

---

The High Court shall, as soon as may be, make rules as to the following matters:-
 (i) The fees chargeable for serving and executing processes issued by such Court in its
appellate jurisdiction, and by the other Civil and Revenue Courts established within
the local limits of such jurisdiction;
 (ii) the fees chargeable for serving and executing processes issued by the Criminal
Courts established within such limits in the case of offences other than offences for
which police-officers may arrest without a warrant; and
 (iii) the remuneration of the peons and all other persons employed by leave of a Court
in the service or execution of processes.
 The High Court may from time to time alter and add to the rules so made.
 All such rules, alterations and additions shall, after being confirmed by the [57][Provincial Government] [58][* * *] be published in the [59][Official Gazette], and shall thereupon have the force of law.
Until such rules shall be so made and published, the fees now leviable for serving and
executing processes shall continue to be levied, and shall be deemed to be fees leviable under this Act.
