The notice of appeal must:
• specify the party or parties taking the appeal by naming each one in the caption or body of the notice, but an attorney representing more than one party may describe those parties with such terms as “all plaintiffs,” “the defendants,” “the plaintiffs A, B, et al.,”or “all defendants except X”;
• name the court to which the appeal is taken.
A pro senotice of appeal is considered filed on behalf of the signer and the signer’s spouse and minor children (if they are parties), unless the notice clearly indicates otherwise. A pro senotice of appeal must be signed, but the absence of a signature may be remedied by filing a corrected notice of appeal after the appeal period has expired. Becker v. Montgomery, 532 U.S. 757 (2001). In a classaction, whether or not the class has been certified, the notice of appeal is sufficient if it names one person qualified to bring the appeal as representative of the class.
