Rule 36(1l) requires that the Single Appendix contain: 

"(1) the relevant docket entries in the proceeding below; 

(2) any relevant pleading, charge, finding or opinion; 

(3) the judgment, order or decision in question; and 

(4) any other parts of the record to which the parties 

wish to direct the Court's particular attention." 

  

The Single Appendix should be arranged so that the various 

documents appear chronologically to the extent possible. 

Rule 36(6) requires the printing of an appropriate index 

at the beginning of the Single Appendix. 
  

If no docket entries appear in the record, counsel for the 

petitioner or appellant should prepare as a substitute a 

chronological list of the important dates on which pleadings 

were filed, hearings held and orders entered. The provision 

of Rule 36(1) for the printing of the docket entries, requires 

only the printing cf entries relating to substantial matters 

unless a procedural step is germane to the issues presented. 

The name of the Court involved should appear at the beginning 

of each item printed in the Single Appendix. 
  

The title of the case should be printed at the beginning of 

the first item and the opinions and judgments should likewise 

carry the title, The title need not be printed on any other 

papers but a parenthetical note should be inserted - 

(Title omitted in printing). 

Jurats and certificates or affidavits of service may be 

omitted and an appropriate parenthetical note printed in its 

stead - (Jurat omitted in printing), (Certificate, ox 

affidavit of service omitted in printing). 

Any deletions not specifically noted should be 

indicated by asterisks, 

All opinions and judgments should be printed in full 

and no deletions made, 

In order that testimony reprinted in a Sir<le Appendix may be 

checked againcsi the original copy, the page at which it appeared 

in the transcript should be printed in brackets. See Rule 36(06). 

  

The size of type, type page and over-all page are covered by 

Rule 39(1l). If a process other than typographical printing is 

used, it is not neccessary to "justify" the right hand margin.
