AN ACT to amend and reenact section 27-11-17 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to the state bar admission fee.

SB 2053 amends North Dakota's state bar admission fee by revising section 27-11-17 of the Century Code. The official abstract only states the bill relates to the bar admission fee without specifying whether the fee increases, decreases, or changes structure. Without details on the exact fee amount or affected parties (e.g., new lawyers, law students), a substantive summary cannot be provided. The bill has passed all legislative steps and been signed into law, but the abstract lacks the necessary policy specifics.
