(a) Self-represented parties. A party who elects to proceed without counsel must comply with the Rules of Appellate Procedure to the fullest extent possible. While the submission of handwritten papers is not encouraged, self-represented parties may serve and file handwritten documents, which should be neatly prepared in cursive script or hand printing in ink. Pages of handwritten documents must be numbered consecutively in the center of the bottom margin of each page. If illegible or unreasonably long, handwritten documents may be rejected for filing by the Clerk.
(b) Filings by a represented party. When a party is represented by counsel in an action before the Intermediate Court or the Supreme Court, counsel must file all documents and make oral argument in that action, if oral argument is scheduled, unless otherwise directed by order.
