Bill of Costs

Chambers's Encyclopaedia, Volume 2: Beaugency to Cataract, p. 141

Bill of Costs is an account stating in detail the charges and disbursements of an attorney or solicitor in the conduct of his client's business. It corresponds to the Account of Expenses in judicial proceedings, and the Business and Cash Accounts in Scotland. In both countries the solicitor may be ordered to make out his bill if he claims any security on the client's property or papers. See COSTS.
