### sec.743R Effect of ending of appointment or notice about possible ending of appointment
If a costs assessor has been given notice under rule 743Q (2) , the costs assessor may not be appointed to carry out a costs assessment unless the principal registrar decides not to end the person’s appointment as a costs assessor.
Unless the court orders otherwise, a costs assessor—
if the costs assessor has been given notice under rule 743Q (2) —may complete a costs assessment started before the notice was given; or
if the costs assessor’s appointment ends—
must not complete a costs assessment started before the appointment ended; and
must return any document, provided to the costs assessor for the costs assessment, to the party who provided it.
For subrule (2) , a costs assessment is taken to have started when the costs assessor is appointed to carry out the costs assessment.
Unless the court orders otherwise, the ending of a person’s appointment as a costs assessor does not affect the validity of—
a costs assessment carried out by the costs assessor before the appointment ended; or
a costs assessment completed under subrule (2) .
