DEFINITION

Noun

All the relevant litigation fees to be paid by the litigants.

由来
  • 讼费一般指任何法律事务相关的费用，而其中就可包括聘请律师的费用、支付给法院的堂费和听证费、及宣誓委员的法庭服务费用。
  • 诉讼案审判过后，当事人所需要缴交的讼费将全权由法官裁判。
  • 在新加坡，讼费一般判给胜诉方。法庭将令败诉方向胜诉方支付相关的法律费用（party-to-party costs）。该费用的数目通常由法庭制定，或经过讼费评定过程后制定。不过，这笔费用只补偿了胜诉方须支付的总法律费用的一部分。
ETYMOLOGY
  • The term generally refer to all fees related to legal matters, including the fees for hiring a lawyer, court fees and hearing fees to be paid to the court, and court service fees for the commissioners of oaths.
  • After the litigation trial, the judge will fully decide the legal cost that the litigants must pay.
  • In Singapore, costs are usually awarded to the winning party. The court will have to make the order for the losing party to pay the winning party what is known as party-to-party costs. Such sums are usually fixed by the court or subject to taxation proceeding. However, this is only partial reimbursement of the total legal fees to be paid by the winning party.
