The $50 reopening fee does not apply to specified Title IV-D child-support motions, but is charged for later child-support, custody, or visitation motions filed by private counsel or a pro se litigant rather than Title IV-D counsel, unless the motion is in forma pauperis.
Pursuant to FCRPP 14(1), a $50.00 reopening fee shall not be paid for motions filed in cases brought pursuant to Title IV-D of the Social Security Act for child support modification or enforcement. However, where an action is initiated pursuant to Title IV-D but subsequent motions regarding child support, child custody or visitation are brought by a private attorney or are filed by a prose litigant rather than by Title IV-D counsel, the fee shall be charged unless the motion is brought in forma pauperis.
