Huh? who told her that? Sounds like there might be a filing fee for something but $500 seems a bit steep. Hopefully she has a lawyer or should get one. She need to get her legal advice from a lawyer not people who have no idea what they're talking about.

Most likely that is the divorce master fee. Most courts charge a fee for the master's time. As John mentioned, if she is going in for a hearing, she would be best off having an attorney.
