Rule 24. Waiver of Filing Fee

     An appellant who is unable, because of financial hardship, to pay the filing fee required by Rule 3(e) or Rule 21(a) may request a waiver of the payment of the fee by submitting a motion to waive the filing fee, on the form prescribed at Form 4 in the Appendix of Forms.

     If the Court grants the motion, the payment of the filing fee will be waived. If the motion is denied by the Court, the Clerk shall promptly transmit to the appellant notice of the Court’s order denying the motion; the fee must be paid within 14 days from the date of the Court’s order.
