levy the costs
Explanation:
Levy in US Am., as in one step away from enforcing the court and legal costs.

Note the different spelling of levee, as in the legendary song of American Pie.

Remitting - in the sense of transferring as opposed to reducing - the costs doesn't make a lot of sense if the loser has to pay / query: the Chilean Revenue Dept., as in the principle of 'costs follow the event':

So: ' potestad de girar las costas que en ellas se decreten cuando resulte vencido el contribuyente.' > the power to draw *such costs as are ordered / awarded* when the tapayer ends up losing the case.

Referencia: West III, T. (2012) Spanish-English Dictionary of Law and Business 2e.

--------------------------------------------------

The award of costs is not a penalty but is a method used to reimburse an innocent party for the expenses of litigation. Costs include the payment of court fees for the commencement of the litigation; the submission of pleadings or other documents; or the Service of Process or other papers by a public officer. The appointment by a court of a referee to hear extremely technical testimony, or a receiver to retain and preserve the defendant's funds or property during litigation, is included in costs. Costs entail expenditures made in interviewing parties or witnesses prior to trial and the fees that are properly paid to witnesses who testify. Printing expenses for maps or necessary documents are also included.

issue legal costs


Explanation:

¿Quién debe pagar las costas judiciales?

En principio, estos gastos judiciales que se vayan generando durante el proceso se van abonando por cada una de las partes.

No obstante, es obligatorio que al final del proceso se decida sobre el pago de estas costas. En la sentencia final se puede imponer una condena en costas que supone que el juez va a obligar a la persona que pierda el juicio a pagar estos gastos del proceso a la parte vencedora.

Alguna de las partes puede solicitar esta condena en un procedimiento, denominado tasación de costas, acompañando dicha solicitud con las facturas y las minutas que justifiquen todos los gastos. Así, se comunicará el importe final de las costas judiciales al condenado pudiendo impugnarlas si no estuviera de acuerdo.
