CLOVER MEADOWS HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION, INC., Plaintiff and Appellant, v. CORTNEE SPEAR, Defendant and Appellee.
ORDER
This Court reviews briefs to ensure compliance with Rules 11 and 12 of the Montana Rules of Appellate Procedure. After reviewing the Appellant's Opening Brief filed on November 07, 2023, this Court has determined that the brief does not comply with Rule 12 and must be supplemented as provided below.
Pursuant to M. R. App. P. 12(1)(i), appellants must attach an "appendix that includes the relevant judgement, order(s), findings of fact, conclusions of law, jury instruction(s), ruling(s), or decision(s) from which the appeal is taken together with any written memorandum or rationale of the court" to an opening brief. Appellant Clover Meadows Homeowners Association's appendix did not contain the judgments appealed from. Accordingly, while the Court accepts filing of appellant's Opening Brief, the Court requests appellant file an appendix including the relevant document(s) from which appellant appeals.
Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that the Appellant file an appendix including the relevant documents from which appellant's appeal is taken within ten (10) days of the date of this Order with the Clerk of this Court.
The Clerk is directed provide a true copy of this Order to the Appellant and to all parties of record.
