Supreme Court Rules 2000

If a person entitled to costs does not file a bill, the taxing officer, whether or not any application has been made by any party, may – give notice to all parties to file their bills of costs for taxation; and limit a time for that purpose.

Where a party entitled to costs neglects to file the bill of costs for taxation, the taxing officer, so as to prevent another party being prejudiced by the neglect, may – allow a nominal or other sum to the party neglecting to file the bill; and certify the sum allowed and the neglect.
