Rule 69-2. Cases Ready for Assignment

Cases will be considered ready for assignment when the briefs and appendices, if any, of all parties, including reply briefs, have been filed or the time for filing reply briefs has expired. Any case ready for assignment may be assigned pursuant to Section 69-3. After notice to counsel of record of a date and time to be heard, the chief justice, the chief judge, or a designee may order the assignment of any appeal, notwithstanding the fact that the case on appeal does not appear on the docket. If an assigned case is settled or withdrawn for any reason, counsel for the appellant shall notify the appellate clerk immediately.
