June 8/NYC, NY - Filing Appeals in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals

Join our discussion to learn the nuts and bolts of prosecuting an appeal in the digital age. Learn how scheduling, motions and argument are handled by the Clerk's office.

Both the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure and the Local Rules have recently changed. What are the new traps to avoid, and how does a practitioner keep in the Clerk's good graces? What are the most common mistakes? What resources are available? This program is appropriate for beginners prosecuting their first appeal as well as experienced practitioners who may not be familiar with new practices.
