(a) Purpose. The purpose of an appendix is to permit
the parties to prepare and transmit copies of those
portions
of the record deemed necessary to an understanding
of the issues presented. It may be served with
any petition, brief, motion, response, or reply but shall
be served as otherwise required by these rules. In any
proceeding in which an appendix is required, if the
court finds that the appendix is incomplete, it shall direct
a party to supply the omitted parts of the appendix.
No proceeding shall be determined until an opportunity
to supplement the appendix has been given.
(b) Contents. The appendix shall contain an index
and a conformed copy of the opinion or order to be
reviewed and may contain any other portions of the record
and other authorities. It shall be separately bound
or separated from the petition, brief, motion, response,
or reply by a divider and appropriate tab. Asterisks
should be used to indicate omissions in documents or
testimony of witnesses. If the appendix includes documents
filed before January 1991 on paper measuring
8 ½ by 14 inches, the documents should be reduced in
copying to 8 ½ by 11 inches, if practicable. If impracticable,
the appendix may measure 8 ½ by 14 inches, but
it should be bound separately from the document that it
accompanies.
