Part II · Filings

Rule 9. SUPERSEDEAS

Amended January 15, 2026 (current)

The Court may issue an order of supersedeas or other similar orders whenever deemed necessary. Service of motions for supersedeas shall be made on the opposing party or attorney before filing and shall be so certified. A copy of the order being appealed and a copy of the notice of appeal must be included with the motion. A motion for supersedeas shall state whether a motion to stay the order at issue has been filed in the trial court or explain why doing so is not 13 practicable, shall specify the status of such motion, and shall contain an explanation of why an order of this Court is necessary and why the action requested is time-sensitive. A motion for supersedeas must also include a stamped "filed" copy of the notice of appeal, unless the movant is seeking an appeal through a discretionary or interlocutory application, in which case the motion for supersedeas must be filed as a separately identified document contemporaneously with the discretionary or interlocutory application.
