The bill amends section 27-11-17 of the North Dakota Century Code, which pertains to the fees required for applicants seeking admission to the state bar. The legislation increases the maximum fee for applicants who submit to examination from one hundred dollars to
two hundred dollars. Additionally, it maintains the maximum fee of four hundred dollars for applicants seeking admission upon motion, as per state law or supreme court rule.
The bill ensures that all fees collected by the state board of law examiners are to be deposited and disbursed in accordance with existing regulations outlined in section 54-44-12. This amendment aims to update the fee structure to better reflect current economic conditions and the costs associated with the bar admission process.
