`COUNSEL
`REGISTRATION Counsel must check in at the courtroom between 9:15 and 9:30 a.m.
`Each party must complete and return the Response to Notice of
`Oral Argument by October 4, 2024. Counsel should review the court's
`Guide for Oral Argument prior to filing the Response. If counsel
`presenting oral argument has not yet entered an appearance, counsel
`must file a motion for leave to appear and attach the proposed entry of
`appearance form. See Fed. Cir. R. 34(e), 47.3(b)(4).
`Each side receives 15 minutes (including rebuttal), unless otherwise
`directed by the court.
`
`In cases where one side has multiple parties represented by different
`counsel and firms, counsel should confer and agree on the
`apportionment of argument time before submitting Responses to the
`Notice of Oral Argument. Appellants and Cross-Appellants may divide
`argument between main argument and rebuttal; Appellees may not.
`Arguing counsel must immediately contact the court if experiencing
`COVID-19 symptoms or other medical illness that might warrant
`excusing an in-person appearance. Arguing counsel seeking to appear
`remotely at oral argument due to medical risk or other extraordinary
`circumstances must file a motion and accompanying declaration
`showing good cause within fourteen (14) days of this notice.
