HB 4138 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Civil procedure: service of process; provisions relating to service of process and court fees; amend to reflect repeal of the extreme risk protection order act. Amends secs. 1908, 2529 & 2559 of 1961 PA 236 (MCL 600.1908 et seq.).

HB 4138 amends Michigan's civil procedure code to remove references to the Extreme Risk Protection Order (ERPO) Act, which was repealed. It specifically revises Sections 1908, 2529, and 2559 of the Revised Judicature Act (1961 PA 236) to eliminate exemptions and provisions that previously applied to ERPO-related cases. This change affects court procedures for service of process and filing fees, ensuring the code no longer includes outdated references to the repealed ERPO law. The bill makes no new policy changes to fees or procedures - only aligns the civil code with the ERPO repeal.
