Practice Pointer: Is There Any Way to Get a Case Decided Faster at the Federal Circuit?
May 31, 2018
Authored and Edited by Elizabeth D. Ferrill
The Federal Circuit may grant a motion to expedite proceedings, which accelerates the overall time for an appeal, but only in certain circumstances. Expedited proceedings may be appropriate where the regular pace may adversely affect one of the parties, especially in cases of preliminary or permanent injunctions. In addition to all of the requirements of ordinary motions, a motion for expedited proceedings should also include as part of the relief sought a request for an expedited briefing schedule for the motion. A motion for expedited proceedings should be filed immediately upon filing an appeal.
