MEMORANDUM TO COUNSEL OR PARTIES
Appeal Number: 12-15147-FF
Case Style: Cambridge University Press, et al v. J. Albert, et al
District Court Docket No: 1:08-cv-01425-ODE
CIVIL APPEALS ARE GOVERNED BY STRINGENT PROCEDURES FOR REQUESTING
EXTENSIONS OF TIME TO FILE BRIEFS AND RECORD EXCERPTS. RULES PROVIDE FOR
DISMISSAL WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE WHEN A BRIEF OR RECORD EXCERPTS IS NOT FILED
OR CORRECTED WITHIN THE TIME PERMITTED. PLEASE SEE THE CIRCUIT RULES AT
WWW.CA11.USCOURTS.GOV
Eleventh Circuit Rule 31-1 requires that APPELLANT'S BRIEF AND RECORD EXCERPTS BE SERVED AND
FILED ON OR BEFORE November 14, 2012.
This is the only notice you will receive concerning the due date for filing briefs and record excerpts. See
Fed.R.App.P. 28, 30, 31 and 32, and the corresponding circuit rules, for further information on preparing briefs and
record excerpts. If you have not entered your appearance in this appeal, please note that the clerk may not accept your
motions or other filings. See 11th Cir. R. 46-5. Appearance of Counsel Forms are available on the court's Web site
at www.ca11.uscourts.gov. Motions for extensions of time to file a brief are frowned upon by the court.
Attorneys registered to use ECF must file briefs electronically using the ECF system. Use of ECF does not modify
the requirements of the circuit rules that counsel must also provide seven (7) paper copies of a brief to the court, nor
does it modify the requirements of the circuit rules for the filing of record excerpts or expanded record excerpts in
a particular case.
Attorneys not registered to use ECF must, in addition to providing seven (7) paper copies of a brief, upload the brief
electronically using the EDF system. (Pro se parties may not use the EDF system, but must provide the required
number of paper copies.) The EDF system is described in 11th Cir. R. 31-5, and instructions are available on the
court's Web site. An EDF ID number is needed to upload your brief. If you do not remember your EDF ID number,
you may look it up on the court's Web site. When uploading a brief for the first time, you will be prompted to register
and create a password known only by you for all future uploads.
Attorneys and pro se parties in districts not participating in the Electronic Records on Appeal Program must file
record excerpts in conformance with 11th Cir. R. 30-1 and 30-2. Attorneys and pro se parties in districts that are
participating in the Electronic Records on Appeal Program, and whose cases are included in the program, must file
expanded record excerpts in conformance with the Electronic Records on Appeal Program Components and
Instructions for Preparing Expanded Record Excerpts, available on the court's Web site. Pro se parties who are
incarcerated are not required to file record excerpts.
Sincerely,
JOHN LEY, Clerk of Court
