How do the U.S. Supreme Courts current rules affect the preparation and printing of my document?
A. In October 2007, the U.S. Supreme Court adopted new Rules which change the way documents are prepared in two very significant ways. First, there is no longer a page count limitation for Supreme Court submissions, instead there is now a word limit. Second, you can no longer submit briefs using Times New Roman or other previously acceptable fonts. Now, you must use a font in the Century family, e.g., Century Schoolbook, New Century Schoolbook (but not Century Gothic), etc. And the point size has changed to 12 points for the body and 10 points for footnotes.
