L.A.R. 47.1: Advisory Committee
Local Appellate Rules and Internal Operating Procedures of the Third Circuit — L.A.R. 47.0 Rules by Courts of Appeals
Any proposed change in the Third Circuit Local Appellate Rules will be forwarded for comment to the Lawyers Advisory Committee, which constitutes the advisory committee for the study of the rules of practice as required by 28 U.S.C. § 2077(b).
Notes
The 1988 amendments to the Judicial Code provide for the appointment of an advisory committee to study, inter alia, local rules of practice. 3d Cir. L.A.R. 47.1 specifies the Lawyers Advisory Committee (LAC) as the statutorily-required review committee, and specifies that any proposed changes in these rules be studied by the LAC before they are adopted.
