In cases involving appeals by prisoners not represented by counsel, the clerk of the district court shall, within 21 days from the receipt of the prisoner’s written request, forward to the prisoner copies of the documents comprising the excerpts of record, so that the prisoner can prepare the briefs on appeal. If the prisoner was granted leave to proceed in forma pauperis at the district court or on appeal, the copies will be produced at no charge to the prisoner. (Rev. 12/1/09; 6/1/19)
