How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding “failure to follow the clear dictates of a court rule will generally not constitute such excusable neglect”
- finding argument regarding applicable standard to be procedurally improper but noting that, if the court were to reach that issue, it would find that Rule 9006(b)(1
- finding filing requirement of Rule 8006, the predecessor to Rule 8009, to be “quite clear” and affirming district court dismissal of appeal where attorney was aware of the deadline, as demonstrated by repeated extension requests, but failed to meet it
- “[I]f [Appellant] does not meet the conditions of Rule 9006(b)(1), and thus is not allowed to file her Designation and Statement, her appeal cannot proceed. The decisive question, then, is whether or not [Appellant’s] failure to file on time was the result of excusable neglect.”
