Cite as 2020 Ark. 221 SUPREME COURT OF ARKANSAS IN RE ISSUANCE OF BARMEMBERSHIP CARDS AND PAYMENT OF FEES FOR CERTIFICATES OF GOOD STANDING Opinion Delivered May 28, 2020 PER CURIAM In response to requests from members of the bar for bar-membership cards, the court is pleased to announce that it will begin a bar-membership-card program on August 1, 2020. The program is strictly voluntary. Attorneys in good standing may request a barmembership card in person at the clerk’s office and pay a $35 fee. The request must be made in person so that a photograph may be taken and placed on the card. The cards will expire annually. Today, the court also announces that starting August 1, 2020, it will require the payment of a $25 fee for the issuance of certificates of good standing. Attorneys requesting a certificate of good standing should complete and return to the clerk’s office a certificateof-good-standing request form along with the $25 fee, and we anticipate that attorneys will have the option of submitting the form and fee online at the Arkansas Judiciary website. The bar-membership-card fees and the certificate-of-good-standing fees will be deposited in the Bar of Arkansas account.
