By: WISCONSIN LAW JOURNAL STAFF//March 9, 2011//
Listen to this articleCivil Procedure
Appeal; length of brief; sanctions
Flagrant violations of FRAP 32 may warrant dismissal of the appeal.
“The flagrancy of the violation in this case might well justify the dismissal of the appeal: let this be a warning. But in addition it is plain from the briefs that the appeal has no merit. To allow time for the appellants to file a compliant brief and the appellees to file a revised brief in response, and to reschedule oral argument, would merely delay the inevitable.”
Affirmed.
