As amended through June 29, 2024

Rule 9.8-1 - Security for Expenses and Fees

The Estate and exceptant(s) shall each provide to the auditor an estimate of the amount of time needed to present their case. Thereafter, the auditor shall recommend to the Court an amount to be held in escrow by the Register of Wills. Said deposit shall be applied to the auditor's bill of costs as submitted by the auditor and approved by the Court.

If exceptions are filed to the Report prior to confirmation absolute or if an appeal is filed after the confirmation, the party filing the same must pay in full all outstanding auditor's fees and costs as set forth on the auditor's bill of costs, regardless of the recommendation of the auditor as to allocation of the payment. The Court may address the issue of auditor's fees and costs at the time of the disposition of the exceptions or appeal.
