Lawyers Challenge New Fees on Alimony Prohibitions
The Bar Association rejected the imposition of fees on lawyers within the remote criminal justice system, considering it an unjustified burden that negatively impacts citizens. The association affirmed that registration on the Egypt Digital platform is free for citizens and lawyers in civil, public, and personal status cases, and that the recent fees apply only to criminal cases. The association opposes this, believing that any fees should be based solely on the Court Fees Law. It also denied reports that individuals with criminal judgments against them are barred from appointing lawyers at the Notary Public, explaining that civil powers of attorney rights cannot be revoked. Moreover, exceptions related to alimony rulings are subject to amendment and do not abolish basic civil rights. The Bar Association aims to follow up on the issue of fees and powers of attorney with the Ministry of Justice to ensure that proceedings are facilitated and not complicated, emphasizing that the right to civil authorization remains preserved for all.
