The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit adopted a modification to a circuit rule changing the attorney-admission fee from $15 to a fee that would be set by order.
Christopher Conway, clerk of court for the Seventh Circuit, announced on Wednesday the adoption of the amendment to Circuit Rule 46(b). The revised rule changes the $15 admission fee to one “as set forth in the Seventh Circuit Attorney Admission Local Fee Order,” in addition to the national fee assigned by the Court of Appeals’ miscellaneous fee schedule.
The local fees are segregated and retained in a designated Attorney Admission Fund administered by a designated custodian.
Conway said the court did not receive any comments on the modification during the comment period. Follow @WLJReporter
