`
`Dear Counsel:
`
`The district court clerk has transmitted a notice of appeal in this matter, and we have
`
`docketed it under the caption and case number shown above. Please include the caption and the
`case number on all correspondence or pleadings submitted to this court.
`
`Counsel in the case must supply the clerk with an Appearance Form. Counsel may
`
`download or fill out an Appearance Form on the "Forms" page on our web site at
`www.ca8.uscourts.gov.
`
`The court has established a briefing schedule for the case, a copy of which will be
`
`forwarded under separate notice of docket activity. Please refer to the schedule and note the key
`filing dates. You should also review Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure 28 and 32, as well as
`Eighth Circuit Rules 28A and 32A. Sample briefs may be obtained by contacting the St. Louis
`Clerk's office.
`
`Within 14 days of today's date, counsel for appellant must: (1) file a verification that any
`
`transcripts needed for the appeal have been ordered and that satisfactory arrangements have been
`made for payment, and (2) file a notice of the method of appendix preparation selected for the
`case. Eighth Circuit Rule 30A contains detailed information on appendix preparation.
`
`The court has directed the clerk's office to monitor and enforce compliance with the
`
`briefing schedule. Failure to file your brief will result in issuance of a show cause order and may
`lead to dismissal of the appeal. Requests for extensions of time must be timely and should
`establish good cause. Overlength briefs are strongly discouraged.
