What happens if an appellee does not file brief?

(c) Consequence of Failure to File. If an appellant fails to file a brief within the time provided by this rule, or within an extended time, an appellee may move to dismiss the appeal. An appellee who fails to file a brief will not be heard at oral argument unless the court grants permission.

How do you write an appellee brief?

The best approach is to write a chronological description of the underlying facts of the case. Include the circumstances of the crime, the charges against the defendant, and then the trial. Create a narrative; do not recite all the facts of the entire crime or the trial. Use only what is necessary for your argument.

What is a blue brief?

Cover Color. The appellants principal appellate brief must have a blue cover. The appellees brief (the response brief) must have a red cover. Any reply brief must have a grey cover.

What is briefing schedule?

Briefing Schedule. The court sets the briefing schedule when the record is complete and sends notice to the parties of the dates the briefs are to be filed.

What happens after a brief?

Once all briefs have been filed, they will be sent to a panel of judges for a decision on the merits of the appeal. The majority of cases are decided on briefs only. No new evidence or testimony can be presented in this Court.
