Rule 75 Notification; Oral Argument

75.1. Notification of Argument or Submission Oral argument will be permitted only in cases designated by the Court of Criminal Appeals. If the Court permits argument in a case, the clerk will notify the parties of the date set for argument. If a case will be submitted without argument, the clerk will notify the parties of the date of submission. The clerk must use all reasonable diligence to notify counsel of settings, but counsel's failure to receive notice will not necessarily prevent argument or submission of the case on the day it is set. 75.2. Request for Argument If a case is not designated for oral argument but counsel desires oral argument, counsel may — within 30 days of the date of the clerk's notice — petition the Court to allow oral argument. This petition must contain specific reasons why oral argument is desired. 75.3. Oral Argument Unless extended in a special case, the total maximum time for oral argument is 20 minutes per side. Counsel for the appellant or petitioner is entitled to open and conclude the argument. Counsel should not read at length from the briefs, records, or authorities. Counsel may orally correct a brief, but multiple additional citations should not be given orally; instead, these citations should be filed in writing with the clerk.
