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.

These include: preparing for an appeal; filing an appeal as of right with the Arizona Court of Appeals; special actions; critical aspects of appeals including motion practice on appeal, the appellate record, standards of review, appellate briefs, amicus curiae practice and oral argument; and decisions and post-decision proceedings in the Arizona Court of Appeals, and practice before the Arizona Supreme Court.

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