North Carolina Appellate Law

This Guide is not only easy to navigate, but also simple to understand. It will be welcomed by law professors and novice appellate attorneys all over North Carolina as a thorough, practical instruction manual on how to file or respond to an appeal in accordance with the Rules of Appellate Procedure. Existing texts are designed primarily to be a universal guide on persuasive writing and advocacy but lack specific references to the local requirements and corresponding North Carolina court decisions on this topic.

Professor Williams has drawn on her extensive experience and anticipated questions that may be asked by a student or advocate of appellate law. Corresponding case references provide the reader with context. An extra tool is a thorough appendix with superb examples of appellate documents. This book is a must-have for any practicing, studying and/or interested in appellate law!
