X. PRODUCTION; DUPLICATION; FEES RULE 81. PRODUCTION AND DUPLICATION (a) Conformity Required: All papers to be filed with the Clerk shall be produced in conformity with the requirements of these rules as to means of production, methods of duplication, form, and size. The Clerk shall refuse to file any paper which is not in substantial conformity with this rule or not in clear type. (b) Production and Duplication: Acceptable means of production and methods of duplication include (1) printing, and processes specified in Rule 82 (b) as permissible in lieu thereof, all of which apply to the papers specified in Rule 82 (a); (2) mimeographing, applicable to papers which would be printed except for waiver of the requirement, and to certain motions, objections, or responses, as specified in Rule 7 (d); and (3) typewriting, applicable to all papers not required to be printed or mimeographed. Production by means other than ordinary typographic printing need not be justified on the right margin. RULE 82. PRINTING (a) Required When: Every pleading (petition, answer, reply, or other responsive pleading) and all exceptions and briefs filed pursuant to Rules 46 and 62 shall be printed unless the printing is waived by the Court on motion pursuant to subdivision (c) of this rule. (b) Methods in Lieu of Printing: In lieu of printing by ordinary typographic methods, papers required by these rules to be printed may be produced by the processes of multilith or offset duplicating. (c) Waiver of Printing: On motion assigning good and sufficient cause therefor, the Court may waive the printing of any paper. Upon the allowance of any such motion, the waiver shall, in the absence of limitation in the order, apply to all papers subsequently to be filed in the case. RULE 83. FORM AND SIZE (a) Printed Matter: All papers produced by ordinary typographic printing shall be on unglazed paper and shall be in such size and form that they can be conveniently bound together so as to make a volume having pages 6% by 9/4 inches and type matter 46 by 7% inches with type never smaller than small pica or 11point type. Page numbers shall be in large distinct type and shall appear in the upper corner of the page. Any paper produced by multilith or offset duplicating may be (1) made to conform to the foregoing requirements as to sizes of pages, type matter, and type, or (2) produced on pages not exceeding 82 by 11 inches, with type matter not exceeding 62 by 91⁄2 inches, double spaced, bound or attached on the left margin, and unfolded. (b) Matter Not Printed: All papers produced by typewriting or mimeographing shall be on pages not exceeding 82 by 11 inches, with type matter not exceeding 62 by 91⁄2 inches, double spaced, bound or attached on the left margin, and unfolded. RULE 84. FEES FOR FILING PETITIONS Except for petitions filed under Rule 22 (a), a fee of $10 shall be paid at the time of filing of any petition, but the Court may fix a fee of $5 in any case where upon written application it is shown that the case involves less than $300 and that it is not a class case. If, in any case, a fee of $5 is authorized by an order of the Court and the judgment of the Court is for $300 or more, an additional amount of $5 shall be paid to the Clerk of the Court before a transcript of the judgment is furnished. At the time of the filing of a petition under Rule 22 (a), there shall be paid a fee of $10 plus $1 for each party plaintiff (other than the first party plaintiff named in the petition) demanding a separate judgment. RULE 85. FEES IN CASES APPEALED TO THIS COURT Except on appeals by the United States, a filing fee of $10 shall be collected by the Clerk in all cases filed in the United States Court of Claims on appeal from decisions of the Indian Claims Commission, and on cases appealed from the United States District Courts under Title 28, United States Code, Sec. 1504. RULE 86. FEES FOR RECORD ON CERTIORARI A fee of 10 cents a folio is fixed for preparing and certifying a transcript of the record for the purpose of a writ of certiorari sought by the plaintiff and for furnishing certified copies of judgments or other documents in cases: Provided, That this fee shall not be applicable to such portions of the record, proceedings, or evidence as are prepared and furnished to the Clerk for certification to the Supreme Court in accordance with Rule 57, except that in all cases a fee of not less than $5 shall be charged for certifying a record in any one case to the Supreme Court. RULE 87. FEES FOR COPIES For each copy of findings of fact and opinion of the Court, or opinion of the Court, a fee of 25 cents is fixed for 5 pages or less; 35 cents for those over 5 pages and not more than 10 pages; 45 cents for those over 10 and not more than 20 pages; and 50 cents for those of more than 20 pages. RULE 88. EFFECTIVE DATE These rules will take effect on December 2, 1957. They govern all proceedings in actions brought after they take effect and also all further proceedings in actions then pending, except to the extent that in the opinion of the Court their application in a particular action pending when the rules take effect would not be feasible or would work injustice, in which event the former procedure applies. |
