(2) Where a Court Usher is prohibited from acting on account of relationship, as mentioned in article 66 of the Code de Procédure Civile, he shall at once notify the fact to the Master and Registrar, or to the District Clerk or Head Clerk of the Court to which he is attached, as the case may be, and another Court Usher shall then be appointed to act in his stead. (3) Where a Court Usher satisfies the Master and Registrar, or the District Clerk or Head Clerk of the Court to which he is attached, as the case [Issue 4] C53 – 2 Revised Laws of Mauritius may be, that there is good reason for him not to act in a particular case, the Master and Registrar or the District Clerk or Head Clerk may appoint another Court Usher to act in his stead.
