The summary judgment was granted in the favor of the defense and I am appealing prose because my lawyer committed several malpractices and has a conflict of interest. I will really appreciate if you could answer my questions:
1) The judge in its order said " time to file a notice of appeal enlarged by 30 days' but did not provide an exact date for the notice of appeal. Now i have to figure out what is the last day for notice of appeal. This order was entered on 5 DEC and my original time to file an appeal was expiring on 15 DEC. So does the 30 day 'enlarged' clock start from the date of order (5 DEC) when the extension was granted or from the day when the notice of appeal was expiring (15 DEC) ?
2) Does the notice of appeal include just one form or the brief should be submitted with the notice of appeal?
3) I want to use the transcript ( for court discussion on summary judgment) in preparation of the brief for appeal. Can I order the transcript now and attach it with the brief? or Do i need to order it again within 14 days once I file for notice of appeal?
Thank you,
M
