Every application for an order for the taxation of an advocate and solicitor’s bill or for the delivery of his bill and for the delivery up by him of any documents in his possession, custody or power shall be made in the matter of that advocate and solicitor.
The certificate of the taxing officer by whom any bill has been taxed shall, unless it is set aside or altered by the court, be final as to the amount of the costs covered by it. The court may make such order in relation to the certificate as it thinks fit, including, in a case where the retainer is not disputed, an order that judgment be entered for the sum certified to be due with costs.
