The Clerk of Courts request that each motion/petition filed seek only one type of relief and reference only one docket number. If a party files a single motion/petition seeking multiple forms of relief, then that party shall be charged as if it had filed a separate motion/petition for each requested matter of relief. If a party files a single motion/petition referencing multiple docket numbers, then that party shall be charged as if it had filed a separate motion/petition for each docket number referenced. Exception is Omnibus Pretrial Motion which should be filed as such.

When filing fees have been overpaid in an amount not exceeding five dollars ($5.00), such overpayment will not be refunded, and the money will be forwarded to the county.

Adams County Clerk of Court uses a third-party processor named Allpaid (formerly GovPayNet) to process debit/credit card filing fees. Allpaid will charge a processing fee added to the total amount paid.

Effective: January 1, 2024
