Section 65.32 - Daily List

A. The Prothonotary shall periodically prepare daily lists of cases for assignment to specific panels of the Court from those cases which are ready for oral argument.

B. A case shall be ready and available for assignment to a daily list on the date on which the appellee's brief is due, regardless of whether the brief has been filed, unless the case has been designated Children's Fast Track or Other Family Fast Track. Cases designated as Children's Fast Track or Other Family Fast Track shall be eligible for listing before an argument panel at the time that the brief for the appellant is filed.

C. The daily list for each panel shall include cases filed in the district in which the panel is scheduled to sit. Ordinarily, cases will be assigned only to a daily list for an argument session which is to be held in the district in which the appeal was filed. The Court, on motion of a party for good cause shown, or on its own motion, may assign cases to a daily list for a panel sitting in a district other than the one in which the appeal was filed.

D. As soon as practical after a case has been assigned to a daily list, the Prothonotary shall notify the parties of the date, time, and location of the argument. Ready cases shall be assigned to a daily list four to six weeks before the scheduled argument date, except in exceptional circumstances upon request of the parties for cause shown and except for expedited matters which may be assigned to a daily list until one (1) week before the argument date.
