COUNSEL FOR THE PARTIES ARE EXPECTED TO APPEAR FOR ORAL ARGUMENT - If you anticipate my problem being present for oral argument on the date assigned, you should call this office within five days of the receipt of this notice. If we do not hear from you, the Court will expect you to appear for argument as scheduled.

Similarly, if two or more cases are being argued on a consolidated basis, counsel for the parties on each side of the cases shall collectively agree on a division of time for that side. PREPARATION FOR ORAL ARGUMENT - In preparing for your appearance before the Court, you should be conscious of the fact that the Justices have read all the briefs filed in this matter. Moreover, each Justice has on the bench a concise summary of the facts of the case. Counsel for the appellant or petitioner should, nevertheless, give a short, concise statement of the material facts and the points relied on for reversal. Pa
