Abstract: The file contains a table of court fees for the Court of the Political Agent (P.A.) at Bahrain. The fees are itemised and numbered (1 to 43) with a description of the charge given, and some grouped under the following subheadings: Appeals, Miscellaneous, Criminal, Registration. Alongside each item is a charge, given in Indian rupees (Rs.), annas (As.) and pies (Ps.) The list is typewritten, but there are some handwritten notes and additions to the list. There are two notes included in the table. The first concerns the dispensing of charges on account of a party being unable to pay charges. The second concerns the application of ‘khidma’ fees in certain proceedings. There is no indication of the date the list was compiled or amended.The file also contains two folios of file notes.

A handwritten note refers the enquiry to another file. The second file note (f 7) lists two pieces of correspondence dated December 1933 (not included in the file), with a note concerning the submission of draft acknowledgements for approval.Physical description: Foliation: the foliation sequence commences at the front cover with 1, and terminates at the inside back cover with 8; these numbers are written in pencil, are circled, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio.
