1.The court shall, where appropriate, fix the amount to be paid to the expert, identify the litigant liable to deposit such amount and set a time limit for the same. 2.Where such litigant fails to deposit the amount to be paid to the expert within the time limit, the other litigant may deposit the same, without prejudice to his right to recourse against his opposing party. 3.If neither litigant deposits the amount, the court may decide to suspend the case for a non-renewable period not exceeding one month until the deposit is made, as long as the adjudication thereof is pending on the expert's report, or the litigant's right to revoke the assignment decision is decided to be forfeited if the court deems that the excuses provided thereby are unacceptable.
