Yikes. I just received my post card reminding me that my D.C. bar law license may expire if I fail to pay my mandatory bar dues soon. Sometimes these post cards resemble junk mail. I’m glad I examined it closely before chucking it into the trash can.
According to the D.C. bar website:
The D.C. Bar Board of Governors has set September 17 as the last date to pay Bar dues for the 2007-2008 year without penalty. After that date, a $30 late fee will be applied to members who have not remitted their annual dues. Nonpayment as of October 31 will result in the member’s loss of license to practice law. Dues originally were due on August 1.
Dues amounts are $188 for active members, $118 for inactive members, and $95 for judicial members.
I really should get more active with the D.C. Bar again. Take on a few pro bono cases perhaps.
