Federal Judicial Center ava20961vnb1 -- 4045-V/00 (2000) Appellate Case Opening October 5, 2000. This program examines administrative challenges facing appellate courts when cases are opened and presents effective practices courts have adopted to meet these challenges. Discussion focuses on four areas: case screening (the role of staff, case managers, and staff attorneys in case-captioning; case types; consolidating or "companioning" cases; jurisdictional issues); communication (developing concise, detailed letters to attorneys; informing district courts, attorneys, and the public of changes in federal and local rules); quality control (modifications to the docket brought about by public access technology); and other logistics (second or successive applications; the briefing schedule; transferred cases; pro se issues).
