Civil procedure ECO BANK T LTD VS VEHICLE AND EQUIPMENT REFERENCE NO

ECO BANK T LTD VS VEHICLE AND EQUIPMENT REFERENCE NO

The Taxing Officer erred by applying the Nineth Schedule for instruction fees to the defendants instead of the Eleventh Schedule and by considering the lifespan of the suit rather than the time spent in hearing or arguments. The awarded instruction fee was excessive and reduced to Tshs 50,000,000/=. Application of more than one schedule and separate taxation of attendance fee are permissible.

No proof beyond what was provided was required for instruction fee. The applicant's submissions were considered, and the complaint of excessive costs was unfounded.
