SEMINAR:     Amendments to the Rules of Procedure for Special Actions

 

DISCUSSION ON THE PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE RULES OF PROCEDURE FOR SPECIAL ACTIONS:

 

On August 4, 2023, the Arizona Supreme Court established the Task Force on Rules of Procedure for Special Actions to restyle the current Rules of Procedure for Special Actions based on styling conventions employed in other recent rule restyling projects and to integrate into the rules the principles of recent case law and to propose substantive changes to the rules that would optimize the use of court resources for such actions.  While these changes remain open to public comment and input, the Appellate Practice Section invites you to join a number of distinguished members of the Task Force—Hon. Sara J. Agne, Hon. Andrew Jacobs, and Eric M. Fraser—to discuss the reasons the Task Force was created, the goals of the Task Force, and the proposed changes, the rationale for the same, and their effects.
