Rule 7.10 AuthoritiesI1
Scotland
When an appeal hearing is fixed, the appellant must, after consultation with the respondent and any other party to the appeal, lodge a joint list of authorities upon which each party intends to rely at the hearing.
The appellant must lodge the joint list by the date specified in the interlocutor that fixes the appeal hearing.
The joint list of authorities must not include—
authorities for propositions not in dispute;
more than 10 authorities, unless permission has previously been granted by the Court on cause shown for the lodging of additional authorities.
The Court may make an order requiring parties to lodge a joint bundle of photocopies or electronic versions of the authorities or digital links to them.
Joint lists of authorities which do not conform with this rule may be rejected.
The Court may find no expenses are payable, or may modify any expenses, where authorities are included unnecessarily.
