REPORTER’S NOTE
In conjunction with proposed amendments to Rule 8-501, Rule
8-503 (b) is proposed to be amended to make clear that “T”
references (to the transcript of testimony contained in the
record) and “R” references (to other references in the record)
may be used in a brief only when the case falls within an
exception listed in Rule 8-501 (b) (cases in which no record
extract is filed). When a record extract is required to be
filed, all references in the brief must be to “E...” (for the
record extract), “App...” (for an appendix to the appellee’s
brief), or “Rep. App...” (for an appendix to a reply brief).
Additionally, the Rules Committee recommends that Rule 8-503
(c) be amended to add a requirement that the cover page of the
appellate brief identify the trial court and the name of each
trial judge whose ruling is at issue in the appeal. Leslie
Gradet, Esq., Clerk of the Court of Special Appeals, requested
this addition because there may be more than one trial judge
involved in a case, and the Court of Special Appeals needs to
know to which judge the opinion is to be sent. It will also aid
the clerk’s staff in identifying potential conflicts that may
occur in the designation of a panel to hear a case.
