What if I discover new legal precedents after the appeal has been briefed, but before oral argument?
If you become aware of additional authorities or new cases after briefing has been completed, you must write a letter to the court in advance of oral argument listing such authorities, with service upon opposing counsel. Do not include any further legal arguments. The court retains discretion to strike or disregard late-filed or untimely citations of authority as they deprive the court and opposing counsel of sufficient opportunity to prepare for oral argument.
