The petition shall be accompanied by a copy of the motion and all supporting documents filed in the trial court, a copy of the trial court's order or opinion ruling on the motion, and a copy of any other parts of the trial court record necessary for determination of the appeal.
If the Supreme Court, based upon its review of the accelerated application for permission to appeal, determines that no answer from the other parties is needed, the Court may act summarily on the accelerated application. Otherwise, the Court shall order that an answer to the application be filed by the other parties. The Court, in its discretion, also may order further briefing by the parties within the time period set by the Court. The Supreme Court shall decide the appeal on an expedited basis upon a de novo standard of review and, in its discretion, may decide the appeal without oral argument.
The accelerated application for permission to appeal authorized by this section 2.07 is the exclusive method for seeking the Supreme Court's review of the intermediate court's ruling on an accelerated interlocutory appeal filed under section 2. The provisions of Tenn. R. App. P. 11 therefore do not apply to such appeals.
Tenn. R. Sup. Ct., 2
