ALABAMA RULES OF JUDICIAL ADMINISTRATION

Rule 7.

Fees for miscellaneous filings.

Any filing for which there is no express cost under the consolidated fee
structure shall be treated as an original filing for cost purposes unless the payment
of a docket or filing fee is specifically waived by law.

[Amended 9-28-87, eff. 10-1-87.]

Comment

Ala.Code 1975, Chapter 19 of Title 12, sets out the consolidated fee
structure to which the rule refers. The words “any filing” in this rule have reference
to the words “cases filed” in Ala.Code 1975, Section 12-19-71, and should be read
in conjunction with that Code section. The word “case” has been defined as “a state
of facts which furnishes occasion for the exercise of the jurisdiction of a court of
justice.” State v. Montevallo Coal Mining Company, 29 Ala.App. 318, 197 So. 82,
85 (1940).
