                            RULE 10.7
                  SUBMISSION OF IMPROPER BRIEF


    If a party submits a brief that fails to comply with the
requirements of Title 10, the appellate court, on its own
initiative or on the motion of a party, may (1) order the brief
returned for correction or replacement within a specified time,
(2) order the brief stricken from the files with leave to file a
new brief within a specified time, or (3) accept the brief. The
appellate court will ordinarily impose sanctions on a party or
counsel for a party who files a brief that fails to comply with
these rules.

[Amended December 24, 2002]
