SRLN Brief: Appellate Self-Help (SRLN 2015)
Self-help resources in appellate courts, both at the state and federal level, are becoming increasingly common. While we do not have any numbers regarding the frequency of self represented litigant (SRL) appeals, we do know that there is a demand for appellate courts to devise resources and consider simplifying procedures in order to meet the SRL need. SRL innovation on the appellate level is largely managed by the appellate clerk of court, although the appellate bar has also developed some innovative programs.
