Seaman and Pauper Cases

In all actions in which the fees of the marshal and the clerk are not required by law to be paid in advance and in which a seaman or party proceeding in forma pauperis prevails, either by judgment or settlement, all fees of the marshal and clerk must be paid before dismissal or satisfaction of judgment may be filed, unless otherwise ordered by the court. Counsel handling the payment of any settlement must confirm that all fees are paid, whether or not any dismissal or satisfaction of judgment entry is applied for.
