Vent: The court fee calculator on the state website was off by $15
I filed a small claims case in Phoenix last month and used their online fee tool, only to get turned away at the clerk's window because it was $15 short. Found out later they hadn't updated the site since 2022. Has anyone else gotten burned by outdated fee info on government pages?
Okay so I used to think those fee calculators were ALWAYS accurate like why would they post it if it's wrong. Then I got hit with a similar $12 difference at the county recorder's office last summer, totally changed my mind. Now I always call ahead and ask for the exact amount before showing up anywhere.
