The Latest in North Carolina Appellate Practice: 2022 Recent Amendments to the North Carolina Rules of Appellate Procedure and Case Law Update


The Supreme Court of North Carolina has amended the North Carolina Rules of Appellate Procedure twice within the last 12 months. In this session, the speakers summarize the major amendments and identify how you can tweak your appellate practice to accommodate these procedural updates.

They also highlight key cases that inform strategies for appellate practice in North Carolina and the Fourth Circuit, involving issues such as substantial-right jurisprudence, certiorari review, recusal and rule of necessity, en banc review, divestiture of trial-court jurisdiction upon notice of appeal, and facial versus as-applied constitutional challenges.
