The Judicial Conference has approved an increase, effective February
7, 2005, in the fee for filing a civil action under 28 U.S.C. §
1914(a) from $150.00 to $250.00. Under the Bankruptcy Miscellaneous
Fee Schedule (28 U.S.C. § 1930), the fee for filing an adversary
complaint and the fee for filing a motion to lift the automatic
stay are linked to the civil filing fee.
Please take notice that the fee for filing an adversary proceeding
will remain at $150.00 until further notice. However, the language
in Item 6 of the Bankruptcy Miscellaneous Fee Schedule will continue
to reference the amount required for the civil filing fee. The fee
for filing a motion to lift the automatic stay will remain at $150.00.
Item 20 of the Bankruptcy Miscellaneous Fee Schedule has been amended
to delete the language linking the fee for filing a motion to lift
the automatic stay to the amount required for filing a civil action
under § 1914.
Bankruptcy Court Miscellaneous
Fee Schedule effective January 1, 2005.
