Rule 48 Title and Citation

This rule simply names the set of rules and tells people how to reference them correctly. When you see "N.D.R.App.P." followed by a number, it means someone is pointing to a specific rule within the North Dakota Rules of Appellate Procedure.

This naming and citation format helps keep things consistent across legal documents, court filings, and briefs. When lawyers, judges, or court staff write about these appellate rules, they all use the same short form so everyone knows exactly which set of rules is being discussed.
