New and increased fees in Oregon state courts starting October 1

The Oregon legislature is boosting state court filing fees and adding new fees in response to the current budget crisis.  Among the new charges effective October 1 are fees "for each additional party named" in a complaint, and for filing or submitting ex parte an order or judgment for signature.  Here is the legislation, HB 2287, from the Multnomah Bar Association web site.  Chief Justice Paul J. De Muniz has created various exemptions to the new fees, indicated here.
