COURT OF APPEAL CASE NUMBER (if known):
Re: Appeal filed on (date): March 22, 2024 A170024
Notice: Please read Information on Appeal Procedures for Unlimited Civil Cases (form APP-001-INFO) before
completing this form. This form must be filed in the superior court, not in the Court of Appeal.
1 RECORD OF THE DOCUMENTS FILED IN THE SUPERIOR COURT
I choose to use the following method of providing the Court of Appeal with a record of the documents filed in the superior court
(check a, b, c, or d, and fill in any required information):
a. A clerk's transcript under rule 8.122. (You must check (1) or (2) and fill out the clerk's transcript section (item 4) on pages
2 and 3 of this form.)
(1) I will pay the superior court clerk for this transcript myself when I receive the clerk's estimate of the costs of this
transcript. I understand that if I do not pay for this transcript, it will not be prepared and provided to the Court of
Appeal.
(2) I request that the clerk's transcript be provided to me at no cost because I cannot afford to pay this cost. I have
submitted the following document with this notice designating the record (check (a) or (b)):
(a) An order granting a waiver of court fees and costs under rules 3.50-3.58; or
(b) An application for a waiver of court fees and costs under rules 3.50-3.58. (Use Request to Waive Court Fees
(form FW-001) to prepare and file this application.)
b. An appendix under rule 8.124.
c. The original superior court file under rule 8.128. (NOTE: Local rules in the Court of Appeal, First, Third, and Fourth
Appellate Districts, permit parties to stipulate (agree) to use the original superior court file instead of a clerk's transcript;
you may select this option if your appeal is in one of these districts and all the parties have stipulated to use the original
superior court file instead of a clerk's transcript in this case. Attach a copy of this stipulation.)
d. An agreed statement under rule 8.134. (You must complete item 2b(2) below and attach to your agreed statement copies
of all the documents that are required to be included in the clerk's transcript. These documents are listed in rule 8.134(a).)
2 RECORD OF ORAL PROCEEDINGS IN THE SUPERIOR COURT
I choose to proceed (you must check a or b below):
a. WITHOUT a record of the oral proceedings (what was said at the hearing or trial) in the superior court. I understand that
without a record of the oral proceedings in the superior court, the Court of Appeal will not be able to consider what was
said during those proceedings in deciding whether an error was made in the superior court proceedings.
