Civil procedure: costs and fees; sheriff's fees for mortgage foreclosures; modify. Amends secs. 2558 & 3240 of 1961 PA 236 (MCL 600.2558 & 600.3240).
This bill updates the fees sheriffs in Michigan can charge for various legal services, including mortgage foreclosures, jury summoning, and prisoner handling. It specifically increases the cost for posting foreclosure sale notices from $16 to $26 and raises the fee for selling lands at foreclosure from $50 to $75. Additionally, the legislation adjusts other compensation rates for tasks like drafting inventories and attending court, while also clarifying the amount a homeowner must pay to redeem a property after a foreclosure sale. These changes directly affect sheriffs, their deputies, and individuals involved in civil litigation or foreclosure proceedings by standardizing and adjusting the financial compensation for these official duties.
