Bill Summary

For legislation relative to supplementary process. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend Section 19 of Chapter 185C of the General Laws, which deals with court fees. Specifically, it aims to ensure that the fee for initiating "supplementary proceedings" (a legal process used to collect on a judgment, often after a lawsuit has concluded) in the specific court governed by Chapter 185C is the same as the fee charged in the district court for the same type of proceeding. This change is intended to standardize the cost of accessing this particular legal mechanism across different courts.
