Possibility of cancelling or delaying civil court fees
Hi All,
I have been cheated by a group of people and had filed the criminal case. The criminal court has ordered jail term and deportation to the criminal and also passed the order - "Referring the civil action to competent civil court without any expenses".
My understanding is that I don't need to pay the court fees which are AED 40000, as my claim amount is 1 million. However, my lawyer is saying that I need to pay the court fees.
I don't have that much money as I have lost all my money in cheating. Can someone clarify if I need to pay the court fees?
I will be very much thankful for your insights.
Thanks
I.

Dear questioner,
The court fees must be paid of course and there is no way around it.
However, it is a possibility that you may request the court to delay the payment of the court fees and this is subject to the court’s approval.
