Held that the petitioning creditor's expenses were rightly taxed as between agent and client.
The Auditor having taxed the petitioning creditor's expenses as between agent and client, the liquidator lodged a note of objections maintaining that such expenses, there being nothing to the contrary in the interlocutor, must be as between party and party.
Now in this case the truth is there is no question of party against party to whom the rule is to apply. Accordingly, I think the Auditor here has done according to the ordinary practice and according to the right practice in allowing this petitioner the expenses he has incurred so far as reasonable, that is, his expenses taxed as between agent and client.
Counsel for the Petitioner— A. A. Fraser . Agent— William Calder , Solicitor.
Counsel for the Respondents— J. A. T. Robertson . Agents— Inglis , Orr , & Bruce , W.S.
