An Act amending the act of November 26, 1982 (P.L.744, No.203), referred to as the Prothonotary Fee Law, further providing for automation fee for prothonotary's office.

HB 2068 allows Pennsylvania county courts (second class A and third through eighth class, including home rule counties) to charge a $10 automation fee when legal cases are filed. The fee funds technology upgrades for court offices through a dedicated "prothonotary automation fund." Fees may increase every three years, but only by the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U), not exceeding inflation. This directly affects anyone filing new court cases in participating counties.
