Preface:
"Based on Rule 47 of the Federal Rules of Appellate
Procedure (FRAP), this court adopts the Eighth Circuit Rules of
Appellate Procedure (8th Cir. R.), governing appeals to the court on and after December 1, 1998.
The Eighth Circuit Rules of Appellate Procedure supplement the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure. Counsel should be familiar with both sets of rules and the federal statutes
governing appeals, particularly 28 U.S.C. §§ 1291 and 1292.
For the convenience of counsel, the Eighth Circuit Rules
are numbered to correspond to the Federal Rules of Appellate
Procedure."
