At a conference in a civil appeal the court may, inter alia, examine its jurisdiction and explore with the parties the possibility of settlement.
When the record on appeal is filed in the appellate court the case shall be docketed. Cases may be set for argument and submission in such order as the court deems advisable.
Appellate review of cases appealed under section 188.028.2(5), RSMo, shall be expedited.
