L.A.R. 46.2: Entry of Appearance
Local Appellate Rules and Internal Operating Procedures of the Third Circuit — L.A.R. 46.0 Attorneys
Within 14 days of notification of the docketing of a case, counsel for the appellant or petitioner must file an entry of appearance which must include an address where notices and papers may be mailed to or served upon him or her. Counsel must include an e-mail address.
The entry of appearance form must be served on all parties. Not later than 14 days after the docketing of the appeal, counsel for all parties in the trial court or agency below and any other persons entitled to participate in the proceedings as appellees or respondents and desiring to do so, must file similar appearances. Any such party or other person on whose behalf counsel fails to file an entry of appearance within the time fixed by this rule will not be entitled to receive notices or copies of briefs and appendices until an entry of appearance has been entered for such party. Counsel or a party proceeding pro se who is not registered as a Filing User must be served directly with copies of notices, motions, and briefs.
Notes
This rule was renumbered by the 1995 revision of the rules; no substantive change from prior Court Rule 9.2 is intended. The requirement of an e-mail address was added in 2008. Time changed to 14 days in 2010 to conform to amendments in FRAP.
