Dear Mr. Haradhvala:
This office is in receipt of the document specified above, indicating that a transcript was ordered to be produced more than 28 days after the claim of appeal or the order granting leave to appeal was filed in this matter. The court rules require that the transcripts be ordered contemporaneously with the filing of the claim of appeal [MCR 7.204(C)(2)], or within 14 days of the grant of leave to appeal [MCR 7.205(E)(3)]. The filing of your brief on appeal will be timed from the filing of the transcripts ordered in conformance with these rules. You may thus wish to expedite the production of transcripts that were untimely ordered so that they can be used in the preparation of your brief.
Alternatively, if you wish the filing of your brief to be timed from the filing of the untimely ordered transcripts, you should file in this Court a motion to extend time to order late transcript, together with an explanation of the reason for the delay in ordering. If you have any questions about this matter, please contact this office at any time.
