Consideration of Reasons for Collecting a Fixed Fee from the Social Insurance Institution (ZUS) as a Creditor Under Art. 29(4) of the Act on Bailiff Costs
The purpose of the article is to answer a question if a bailiff is authorised to collect a fixed fee from the Social Insurance Institution (Zakład Ubezpieczeń Społecznych) that has been defined in art. 29(4) of the Act on bailiff Costs.
The reason for raising this issue is a controversy in collecting a final fee from ZUS, which contributes to a number of complaints filed against decisions of bailiffs, in which the above-mentioned fee was charged and ZUS was summoned to pay the same.
The article refers to the main arguments of ZUS put forward to prove that it is not an entity from whom a fixed fee is collected. In this context, art. 114(4) of the Act on the social insurance system, art. 29(4) and (5) of the Act on bailiff costs, as well as art. 45(1) and (2) and art. 47 of the same Act were discussed. Finally, it was considered if it is admissible for a bailiff to file an application to a district court for the payment of an amount to cover a fixed fee under art. 46 of the Act on bailiff costs.
