Not illustrated. 1861 Excerpt: ...distribution of a fund paid by them into Court, and a second petition was presented by the assignees in bankruptcy of one Joseph Cazneau, to whom the fund had been bequeathed, the Court, though it disapproved of the course pursued by the trustees, and allowed them only respondent's costs, yet held that after the petition by the trustees had been filed, and the Court had acquired jurisdiction to declare the rights of the parties, the assignees, having notice, had clearly no right to burthen the estate with more costs. The Court therefore ordered that they should pay the costs of their petition, and allowed the executors their costs of appearing on that petition out of the fund.1 1 Re Covington's Will, 1 Jur. (N.

Where the conduct of the trustees has been oppressive, they will have to pay the costs of the petition.

On a petition presented by a tenant for life, for the general benefit of the trust, for payment of the dividends of a fund in Court under these Acts to him for life, the costs of such a petition will be directed to be paid out of the corpus of the fund.8 8.
