Attorney Registration Fee Increase

I haven't abandoned this blog, but I had to take a sabbatical because of an intensely busy work schedule over the last several months.  At this point I don't have enough time to devote to a review of recent court decisions that I believe to be of interest, but I wanted to share a development that all attorneys must address.  Toward that end, take note that section 468-a(4) of the Judiciary Law was amended to increase the Attorney Biennial Registration Fee to $375.00 as of September 1, 2010.  The New York State Office of Court Administration will implement the amended law to apply to all attorney registrations due on or after the aforestated date.
