We have recieved word from the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts that temporary reductions (implemented in September 2013) to hourly panel attorney rates have been repealed. In addition, a cost-of-living adjustment to panel attorney non-capital and capital hourly rates has been provided. As a result, for work performed on or after March 1, 2014, panel attorney hourly rates will increase to $126 for non-capital representations and $180 for capital representation.
