L.A.R. Misc. 107.1: Dismissal of Appeal for Failure to Pay Certain Fees

(a) The clerk is authorized to dismiss the appeal if the appellant does not pay the docketing fee within 14 days after the case is opened in the court of appeals, as prescribed by 3d Cir. L.A.R. 3.3.

(b) The appellant's failure to comply with 3d Cir. L.A.R. 11.1 regarding transcription fees is grounds for dismissal of the appeal.

For the convenience of counsel, all rules relating to sanctions are included in 3d Cir. L.A.R. Misc. 107.0. Where these rules have some counterpart in FRAP, they are included in both the corresponding 3d Cir. L.A.R. and Misc. 107.0. Where they have no counterpart in FRAP, they are included in 3d Cir. L.A.R. Misc. 107.0 only. Only the parts of prior Court Rules 15.1 and 28.1 setting forth sanctions have been included here. No substantive change from prior Court Rules 15.1 and 28.1 is intended. The rule was amended in 2008 to clarify when the time for payment of fees begins to run.
