He stresses that the topicality of the issue pointing to the fact that these expenses are a significant part of the total amount of judicial costs. A special attention is given to the definition, legal nature and limits of costs to pay to the representatives. The author debates with the Russian lawyers who prove that judicial costs include the salary to judges and staff, expenses on maintaining and repairing facilities etc. The author develops the idea that these expenses are part of the budgetary legislation and hence do not relate to judicial costs. However, he admits that the state can not be excluded from the list of entities bearing court costs. In particular, services of translators, judicial experts and in some cases the presence of witnesses are payable from the state budget. The article makes a conclusion on the ambiguous legal nature of these arbitration costs. They are losses, though at the same time, they are court costs.}, annote = {The article covers the approaches to the definition of court costs in arbitrazh procedures.
