Rule 210 - Form and Content of Briefs(a) The brief of the moving party shall contain a statement of the questions involved, a history of the case, and argument; and shall have appended to it a copy of the relevant docket entries, all pleadings or papers in the nature thereof upon which the particular application is based or that are necessary to a full understanding of the questions involved and any adjudication, decision, or opinion previously filed.

When a finding of fact or the refusal to find a fact is discussed, the argument shall contain a synopsis of all the evidence on the question, with a reference to the page or pages of the transcript where the evidence may be found.(c) The matter will be decided on the briefs submitted unless oral argument is requested.(d) This rule applies to all briefs submitted to the Court En Banc as well as those submitted to individual Judges.Amended effective 1/1/2023.
