Table CC – Lump sum fees for bail applications in the Magistrates’ Court and in the Criminal Division of the Children’s Court prior to 18 January 2011
Table CC sets out the fees payable by VLA in bail applications in the Magistrates’ Court and in the Criminal Division of the Children’s Court.
These fees are claimed using the Criminal proceedings – miscellaneous – tables CC, D1 and FF tax invoice.
| Service/proceeding | Fees payable |
|---|---|
| Contested bail preparation | $143 |
| Negotiated bail application including appearance | $192 |
| Appearance fee | $301 |
What if it is in the assisted person’s best interests to proceed to a plea in the Magistrates’ Court, rather than to a bail application?
In Magistrates’ Court matters, if counsel appears for the assisted person and considers that it would be in the person’s best interests to proceed to a plea instead of to a bail application, then VLA will pay the appearance fee for a plea pursuant to Table A1 and Table A1(i) instead of paying the appearance fee for the bail application.
