It concerns Wilcox’s action to collect back tax case fees with no judgment nor payment by the county, and clarifies nothing about clerk fee rights in territorial tax cases. The criminal case fees were defaulted and unaffected. the county must pay the district court judgment, and the clerk’s authority to collect untaxed fees will be decided in a separate suit.
