1. On the issue of legal fees, courts in some areas generally charge case fees according to the standard of summary procedure, that is, when filing a case, they default to summary procedure and charge it by half. However, this is not inevitable. All regions have some case standards applicable to summary procedure. If your case is complicated and the summary procedure is not applicable, they will turn to the ordinary procedure to file a case.
2. If the case is settled through mediation, the fee will be halved according to law. If you paid the legal fees in full at the beginning, you can ask the court to refund half of the legal fees after closing the case, and this will be stated in the conciliation statement.
As for the time to pay legal fees, it is generally deducted within 7 days. Because the "Measures for the Payment of Legal Fees" stipulates that the filing review period is 7 days, the court will let you file a case. If you fail to pay the legal fees within 7 days, it will be considered as withdrawal.
4. If the actual value of your subject matter exceeds the value when the court filed the case, it will not be affected if only the property right of the house is disputed. If the housing division involves the amount at the specific auction, you may be required to recover the legal fees. Ultimately, it depends on the nature of the case and the requirements of the court.
I have worked as an intern in Hangzhou grass-roots court, so I still know something about the basic situation of the court. If you are in doubt about the calculation method of legal fees, you can consult the charging method of the filing court of our hospital. There are also calculation standards for economic cases in the Measures for Payment of Legal Fees, which you can refer to and calculate according to your own situation.
I hope to upload a copy of the "Quick Calculation Form of Legal Fees" (made according to the "Measures for Paying Legal Fees") to help you.
