UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
WESTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
IN THE MATTER OF CHANGES TO DISTRICT Administrative Order
COURT MISCELLANEOUS FEE SCHEDULE No. 23-AD-101
AND ATTORNEY ADMISSION FEE
/
At its March 2023 and September 2023 sessions, on the recommendation of the Committee on
Court Administration and Case Management (CACM), the Judicial Conference approved inflationary
adjustments to fees and increased the fee for attorney admission on the District Court Miscellaneous Fee
Schedule pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1914. These changes are scheduled to become effective December 1,
2023.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the fee for admission to practice as an attorney before this Court is
hereby increased to $251, and that upon collection of this fee the Clerk shall apportion it as follows:
$199 to the Treasury of the United States, for allocation as directed by the Judicial Conference; and
$52 to the Discretionary and Administrative Library Fund of the Court, to be divided equally between
the Pro Bono fund and the general purpose fund, as provided in the local Plan for the Administration of
Discretionary and Administrative Library Fund (last updated December 21, 2022)
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the fee for any approved Pro Hac Vice admission (which is
discouraged under Local General Rule 2.2(a)) remains at $35.00.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this supersedes Administrative Order 20-AD-080 and modifies
the December 21, 2022, version of the Plan. The Clerk of Court is authorized to promulgate a new version of
the Plan incorporating these changes.
FOR THE COURT:
Dated: November 1, 2023
