Costs where Several Issues

activein force · 2026-01-01 – presentact-effective-date

(a) Whenever in any action there shall be two

or more issues joined on material allegations, and

a part of such issues shall be found for the defendant and the remainder for the plaintiff, the defendant shall recover such costs as were incurred

upon the issues found in the defendant’s favor,

including fees of witnesses and the expense of

summoning them. If several distinct claims shall

be made under one count, and the plaintiff shall

recover upon some and not upon others, the plaintiff shall not recover costs incurred in attempting

to support the claims which the plaintiff shall fail

to establish.

(b) When costs are awarded to both parties,

the judicial authority upon motion of either party

may order a setoff of the same, and execution

will then issue only for the balance.
