Using its constitutional authority to override Utah Supreme Court rules by a two-thirds vote, the Legislature amends the judicial rules governing the Utah State Bar to place new limits on how attorney licensing fees can be used. Under this resolution, the Supreme Court may only charge lawyers a licensing fee that is proportional to the actual costs of admitting, licensing, disciplining, and disbarring attorneys — and may not use those fees to fund other services for lawyers or the public, unless attorneys voluntarily opt in to pay for such services.
