The Magistrates' Courts Fees (Amendment) Order 1992
This Order makes new provision for court fees relating to civil business in magistrates' courts. It considerably shortens the current list in Part I of Schedule 6 to the Magistrates' Courts Act 1980 and, among other changes, introduces new fees in relation to family proceedings and the collection of the community charge and rates. It also increases significantly the fees for those items which have been retained in the list, in order to reflect more accurately the cost of the services involved. It does not apply to legally assisted persons, or persons in receipt of family credit or income support.
