if high court or supreme court dismissed any PIL with cost mean, court will give you certain time limit to pay the fine amount.. with in that period if you failed to pay the amount mean YOU WILL BE PUNISHED UNDER CONTEMPT OF COURTS.
YOU ARE LIBERTY TO FILE A WRIT APPEAL REGARD THE SAME..
for avoid this circumstance PIL should be public interest litigation, not as private interest litigation or paisa interest litigation, or publicity interest litigation,,
