Missouri Department of Revenue fee hike
From Sunshine Review
In May of 2008, the Missouri Department of Revenue raised the fees for accessing public motor vehicle and driver records from less than 1/2 a cent each to $7 dollars apiece. Three businesses (R.L. Polk & Co., Explore Information Services and SAMBA Holdings) filed a lawsuit to block the increased fees. [1]
Cole County Judge Richard Callahan questioned the decision, and a temporary court order blocking the fee increase has been put in place. "A hearing over a permanent court order is scheduled for June 20" [2]
