SB 2373 Mississippi Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Justice court filing fees; authorize board of supervisors to increase by 10% annually.

SB 2373 would have allowed Mississippi county boards of supervisors to increase justice court filing fees by 10% each year. It required clerks to publicly post updated fee schedules both in physical copies and online if fees changed. This bill directly affected county justice courts and people filing cases (like civil disputes, marriage licenses, or criminal matters) by changing how fees could be adjusted annually. The bill died in committee in February 2026 and never became law, so these changes were never implemented.
