FOREWORD
RULES OF THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE ELEVENTH CIRCUIT
(cite as 11th Cir. R.)
Both the court of appeals, by action of a majority of the circuit judges in regular service (see generally 28 U.S.C. chapters 3, 13, 15, 21, 47, 57, and Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure 47), and the judicial council of the circuit (membership of which has been fixed pursuant to statute to include nine active circuit judges, one active judge from each of the nine district courts, and the circuit chief judge) have certain responsibilities for the effective and expeditious administration of justice within the circuit. Contained herein are rules relevant to the court of appeals adopted by the court and by action of the judicial council.The United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit has adopted these rules pursuant to Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure (FRAP) 47. They supplement the provisions of law and FRAP. To properly proceed in this court, counsel should read and follow FRAP, these rules, and the court’s Internal Operating Procedures (IOP) which describe the internal workings of the clerk’s office and the court. Although there are necessary exceptions, an effort has been made by the court not to duplicate in the Circuit Rules or the IOPs either FRAP or each other. Circuit rules not inconsistent with FRAP govern. The word “appeal” as used in these rules and IOPs includes, where appropriate, any proceeding in this court, including petitions for review and applications for enforcement of agency orders, and writs of mandamus and prohibition, and other extraordinary writs.

| ONE: | Rules for Conduct of and Representation and Participation at the Eleventh Circuit Judicial Conference |
| TWO: | Procedures in Proceedings for Review of Orders of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission |
| FIVE: | Non-Criminal Justice Act Counsel Appointments |
| SEVEN: | Regulations of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit for the Selection and Appointment or the Reappointment of Federal Public Defenders |
| EIGHT: | Rules Governing Attorney Discipline in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit |
| NINE: | Regulations of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit for the Selection and Appointment or the Reappointment of Bankruptcy Administrators |
Available addenda as adopted by the judicial council are:
| THREE: | Rules for Judicial-Conduct and Judicial-Disability Proceedings with Eleventh Circuit Judicial Conduct and Disability Rules |
| FOUR: | Eleventh Circuit Plan under the Criminal Justice Act and Guidelines for Counsel Supplementing the Eleventh Circuit Plan under the Criminal Justice Act |
