What fee is assessed for a document deficiency in an application?

When a filing is missing required items or isn’t properly formatted, the court charges a document deficiency fee to cover the clerical work of notifying the party and processing the correction. In this scenario, the standard amount is $100. This fee is assessed after the deficiency notice is issued and must be paid for the deficient document to be accepted or resubmitted. It’s separate from the initial filing fee and any other penalties. If the filing lacks a required exhibit, signature, or formatting, this fee would apply. The other dollar amounts are not the deficiency fee for this item.
