Each week, the Clerk's Office prepares a list of
recently-filed appeals, indicating short title, jurisdictional predicate, subject matter and
key
issues. Some of these appeals may not reach decision on the merits because of dismissal,
on
motion or sua sponte, or because the parties stipulate to withdrawal. Some appeals may
be
selected for review pursuant to the alternative procedure of Rules of the Court of
Appeals (22
NYCRR) § 500.11. For those appeals that proceed to briefing in the normal
course, the
briefing schedule generally will be: appellant's brief to be filed within 60 days after the
appeal
was
taken; respondent's brief to be filed within 45 days after the due date for the filing of
appellant's
brief; and a reply brief,
if any, to be filed within 15 days after the due date for the filing of respondent's brief.
The Court welcomes motions for amicus curiae
participation
from those qualified and interested in the subject matter of these newly filed appeals.
Please
refer to Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR) § 500.23 and direct any
questions to
the Clerk's Office.
