Revised Attorney Fee Application Rules and Process

1.     Two copies of the fee application must be submitted to the judge.  The copies will no longer be returned to the attorneys.  Instead, they will be forwarded directly to the Clerk's Office for filing.

2.     Fee applications requiring corrections will no longer be mailed to the attorneys.  Instead, they should be picked up from the mail slot on the 9th floor (where they previously picked up the signed fee applications before they were filed).
