• Proposed Changes to RAP 9.5 - Filing and Service of Report of Proceedings--Objections (in Word Format)
• No comments were submitted.

Purpose: This suggested amendment is based on a recommendation originally submitted by David Ponzoha, Clerk/Administrator of Division II of the Court of Appeals. The suggested amendment to RAP 9.5(d) changes an erroneous internal cross-reference in the rule.

This error was created by a 1990 amendment that moved provisions about settling the record from section (a) of the rule into a new section (c), concerning objections to and settlement of the report of proceedings. See 115 Wn.2d 1129-30 (1990). In section (d), the internal cross-reference to settling the report of proceedings should have been changed from “section (a)” to “section (c),” but this was overlooked.
