Bill would end fees for federal court clerks nationwide
The House judiciary committee favors a measure to abolish clerks fees in federal courts in Texas and other states. The Northern District clerk would earn 4000 dollars yearly while clerks in the Southern Eastern and Western Districts would receive 3500 dollars. The administration backs the proposal and an attorney general report may push broader reforms. A separate note mentions collapsible baby carriages disappearing in Christina Norway due to physician activism and Ono Japan notes a smoking tree that emits smoke from its top after sunset.
