TO; Counsel
FROM: Clerk's Office
RE: Rule 30(c) - Deferred Appendix Procedure
The Sixth Circuit encourages use of the deferred appendix
procedure contemplated by Rule 30(c) of the Federal Rules of
Appellate Procedure. However, a motion seeking leave to use the Rule 30(c)
procedure must be filed in the Clerk's office at least ten days prior to due
date of appellant's brief.
The procedures are as follows:
(1) Appellant's and appellee's counsel are to file one copy of their
briefs in the Clerk's office and are to serve one copy on every other party
to the appeal.
(2) These preliminary copies of the briefs should cite references to
items in the record of district court proceedings, where applicable.
(3) Within three weeks after service of the appellee's brief,
appellant's counsel is to file the joint appendix.
(4) Within two weeks after service of the joint appendix, the parties
are to file the required number of briefs. The only changes permitted to be
made to the preliminary briefs are that references to the record are to be
replaced with references to the serial pagination of the appendix. Parallel
references are also permitted.
(5) Your attention is directed to Sixth Circuit Rules 10(d) and (e):
RULE 10(d): "The joint appendix should be consecutively paginated
and a table of contents referencing specific pages of the appendix
should be prepared. The contents should include;
1. the district court's docket sheet;
2. the complaint or indictment;
3. the judgment from which the appeal is taken and any memorandum
opinion incident thereto;
4. the notice of appeal;
5. any other matter to which either counsel intends to refer
in their briefs or wishes to bring to the particular attention
of the Court."
RULE 10(e): "With respect to Rule 30, Federal Rules of Appellate
Procedure and especially Rule 30(c) , references in the briefs to the
record should be indicated by referring directly to the page numbers
of the joint appendix."
