Plain-English Summary (for reference only — not a substitute for the rule text above)
This summary is not the rule. The rule text controls.
This rule is currently reserved, which means it has no content right now. Courts sometimes label a rule number as "reserved" when they remove old text or plan to add new rules later. This keeps the numbering system consistent even when a specific rule is empty.
If you're looking for guidance on this part of the appeals process, you won't find any active requirements here. Check the surrounding rules or an updated version of the rule book to see if the content has moved elsewhere or if new rules have been added since this summary was written.
Committee Notes
Former rule 6.905. The appendix process has been eliminated and has been replaced with the requirement to attach to the appellant’s brief the orders and judgments being appealed as provided in rule 6.903(2)(b).
In exceptional cases, if a party believes that an appendix will assist the reviewing court, then that party may file a motion seeking leave of court to file an appendix. The motion must comply with rule 6.1002 and state the reasons leave of court is being requested. If granted, the requesting party may file an appendix with the brief.
