Rule 1.16 - MANDATE

In every appeal or petition to review any order of a district court or other tribunal, a mandate will be issued to the lower court or tribunal on order of the Chief Justice upon conclusion of the matter on appeal. The mandate may be issued seven (7) days after the filing of an order denying certiorari or rehearing in the Supreme Court, or immediately upon expiration of time to file a petition for writ of certiorari or petition for rehearing, and disposition of any timely filed post-decisional motion. No mandate is issued upon conclusion of original actions, questions certified by federal courts, bar disciplinary matters, or original proceedings on initiative or referendum petitions.

If a party contemplates the filing of a petition for writ of certiorari in the United States Supreme Court, the party may file a motion to suspend the effectiveness of the mandate. The effectiveness of the mandate may be suspended upon order of this Court until expiration of time to file the petition or notice of final disposition by the United States Supreme Court.
