As amended through October 29, 2024
Rule 5 - Transmitting And Supplementing The Record; Extensions By Trial Court(A) Extensions of time for transmitting the record beyond the eightieth (80th) day after the filing of the notice of appeal may be granted only by the court of appeals. The trial court shall not extend the time for transmitting the record beyond the eightieth (80th) day after the filing of the notice of appeal, and the court of appeals will not recognize an order of the trial court purporting to do so.(B) Motions for extensions of time beyond the eightieth (80th) day shall be filed before the expiration of the last extension granted by the trial court. Motions for an extension of time to file the record and motions to supplement the record requested because of a claimed inability of the court reporter to timely supply a transcript or other necessary part of the record, whether filed with the trial court or with the court of appeals, must be accompanied by an affidavit of the court reporter explaining why the extension is needed and stating when the reporter will be able to supply the transcript or other necessary part of the record.(C) Applications to the court of appeals for extensions of time to transmit the record and applications to supplement the record shall be made by written motion filed by counsel or a party acting pro se. When not subject to division (B) of this rule, such motions shall be supported by affidavit or affidavits based on personal knowledge, which set forth facts demonstrating good cause for the extension or supplementation.(D) The appellant is responsible for causing timely transmission of the record and for obtaining such extensions and supplementations as are necessary to discharge this responsibility. Any party who obtains an order granting an extension of time for filing the record or an order supplementing the record from the trial court shall file a copy of the order with the clerk of the court of appeals.(E) Motions for extensions of time to transmit the record in priority cases are governed by Loc.R. 13.(F) No additions may be made to the record after the date on which the notice of the filing of the record is mailed to the parties except upon leave of the court of appeals to supplement the record.As amended through 6/1/2021; as amended effective 3/2/2022.
