Section 107 Disposition versions

1982-12-01

107. Before filing the return and affidavit prescribed by section 104, an official agent must have paid all the claims received within the period prescribed by section 101, unless he contests them and mentions them therein as being contested.

It is forbidden for the official agent and the party leader or candidate to pay a claim so contested, except in execution of a judgment of a competent court in favour of the creditor after the hearing of the case but not upon an acquiescence in the demand or an agreement of settlement.

A judge, or the treasurer if no party or candidate objects, may authorize an official agent, a party leader or a candidate to pay a contested claim or a prescribed claim if the refusal or failure to pay results from a bonafide error, and if that payment does not increase the election expenses to an amount exceeding the limit fixed by section 102.

1978, c. 63, s. 107; 1982, c. 31, s. 96; 1982, c. 17, s. 45.

A judge may nevertheless authorize the payment of a contested claim or a claim not produced within the prescribed time, if it is established before him that the contestation or delay in filing results from a bonafide error or oversight and that the payment will not increase the expenses to an amount exceeding the limit fixed by section 102.
