if the judgment was entered as a result of the filing of a cost assessor’s certificate, must include a statement to that effect, together with a statement to the effect that the determination set out in the certificate—

is not subject to any suspension under section 86 of the Legal Profession Uniform Law Application Act 2014 that has not been ended under that section, and

is not subject to any suspension under section 90 of the Legal Profession Uniform Law Application Act 2014 that has not been ended under that section, and

must indicate the extent (if any) to which the judgment debt has been satisfied under any other writ of execution, garnishee order or charging order issued by the court.

Any application by the judgment creditor for a charging order in relation to a judgment debt that has been the subject of an instalment order that has ceased to have effect may not be granted unless the judgment creditor has filed an affidavit as to the judgment debtor’s failure to comply with the order.
