RULES FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE TARIFF AND THE GUIDANCE OF THE DEPUTY-SHERIFF
In the Tariff "possession" means the continuous and necessary presence on the premises in question for the period in respect of which possession is charged of a person employed and paid by the deputy-sheriff for the sole purpose of retaining possession.
When a charge is made for possession of any property, no charge shall be allowed for herding and tending of livestock if one and the same person could render both services.
If there are more ways than one of doing any particular act, the least expensive way shall be adopted unless there is some reasonable objection thereto.
No travelling allowance shall be charged unless it was necessary for the deputy-sheriff to go beyond a distance of one kilometre from his office; but when any such allowance is payable, it shall be paid for the actual distance travelled in going from and returning to the office.
No charge shall be made for the cost of any transport, railway fare, etc., in addition to a charge for travelling allowance.
If more services than one can be performed on the same journey, the distance to the first place of service may be brought into account only once, and shall be apportioned equally to the respective services; and the distance from the first place of service to the next place of service shall similarly be apportioned equally to the remaining services, and so forth.
If the execution of a judgment has been stayed by publication of notice of surrender or by sequestration after an inventory has been made, for the purpose of the execution, no charge shall be made for a second inventory of the same goods. The deputy-sheriff's fees for making the inventory shall be charged to the insolvent estate in question, according to the tariff, and not to the execution creditor, unless the estate is unable to pay those fees.
The deputy-sheriff may pay rent, if necessary for premises required for the storage of goods attached, for a period of one month or such longer period as the Master shall authorise.
Every question arising under or relative to the tariff shall be determined by the Master.
