In 2009 I opened a civil case against a security company.
The case was supposed to be heard in the Gauteng North High Court.
The court dates were approximately one year apart.
The first court date were postponed by the defendant & the second there wasn't a court room available when we arrived at court.
Our Advocates started arguing the case outside the court rooms & the defendant postponed the case a second time.
Three week before the next court date my Attorney informed me that my advocate will not be able to be in court & they were withdrawing from the case.
A settlement was reached between me & the defendant.


Today the sheriff of the court hands me a notice of intention to tax bill of costs.

What is the purpose of this document?
