Public commenter urges free portal access for court publication notices
At the hearing on proposed amendments to MCR 2.106 (notice by publication), Sheldon Larky said he supports the proposed change but urged that the public be able to obtain publication notices without cost when those notices are published electronically through portals. Larky said entities and parties will pay for publication but the public should still have free access through court portals and cited Virginia as an example of similar practice.

"If in fact they use electronic means that the public be able to get the information free through the portals," Larky said. The presiding justice thanked him and there were no follow‑up questions recorded on the item.
