* Note: these filing fees are not deposits; they are the estimated changes for the particular filings. There are no unused deposits to return. Further if the actual cost exceeds these filing fees, the party requesting the service will be billed for the deficiency. Finally, the mention of counterclaims, crossclaims, and third party complaints in material dealing with forcible entry and detainer actions and small claims actions, and the mention of various methods of service, are merely recognition that some parties attempt such practice and should pay the costs of such attempts. The mention of such material does not indicate this Court's position on the legality of such practices in particular proceedings or situations.
