Arizona Appellate Handbook 2.0, Volume Two (2020) - Print Version

Based on a survey of our members conducted two years ago, the new Arizona Appellate Handbook 2.0 has been revised and improved to make it a better resource. Instead of each individual practice area repeating the same information, it now uses a “hub and spoke” approach.

Volume Two addresses the forms of review that take place outside of the Arizona Supreme Court and Court of Appeals. These include:

• the appellate capacity of the superior court in hearing appeals from limited jurisdiction courts
• conducting judicial review under the Administrative Review Act and the Administrative Procedure Act.
• proceedings before the OAH 
• special actions filed in superior court, and
• special considerations associated with appeals from particular agencies.

Special Features: The digital version of the new handbook includes special features making them more user-friendly. The text is searchable and includes hyperlinks to case law, statutes, relevant web information, and links to internal cross-references. Model forms and useful appendices are included in the digital format for ease of use.

The Appellate Handbook 2.0 would not have been possible without the substantial contributions of our tireless volunteer committee members.
