Where do I file the appellate brief?

You must file the appellate brief with the clerk of the Court of Appeals. If you make a mistake and file it with the superior court, this could delay the filing of your brief with the court of appeals by your deadline.  Location and contact information for the Court of Appeals can be found here.
