TREBLE COSTS (bouvier) | TREBLE COSTS, remedies. By treble costs, in the English law, is understood,

thereof. 1 Chitty, R. 137; 1 Chitt. Pract. 27.
2. Treble costs are sometimes given by statutes, and this is the
construction put upon them.
3. In Pennsylvania the rule is different; when an act of assembly gives
treble costs, the party is allowed three times the usual costs, with the
exception, that the fees of the officers are not to be trebled, when they
are not regularly or usually payable by the defendant. 2 Rawle, R. 201.
4. And in New York the directions of the statute are to be strictly
pursued, and the costs are to be trebled. 2 Dunl. Pr. 731.

Rep. 567.
2. The construction on the words treble damages, is different from that
which has been put on the words treble costs. (q.v.) Vide 6 S. & R. 288; 1
Browne, R. 9; 1 Cowen, R. 160, 175,176, 584; 8 Cowen, 115.
