DOCKETING STATEMENT--CRIMINAL CASES
Directions: Counsel must make a docketing statement (criminal) entry in CM/ECF within 14

docketing notice, whichever is later. File with the entry the (1) docketing statement form and any
extended answers and (2) any transcript order form. Counsel who filed the notice of appeal is

criminal cases, counsel who represented the defendant below must continue on appeal unless the
court of appeals grants a motion to withdraw. Appellants proceeding pro se are not required to
file a docketing statement. Opposing counsel may file objections to the docketing statement
