These rules are designed to facilitate business and advance justice. They may be relaxed or dispensed with by the appellate courts where a strict adherence to them will work surprise or injustice. In a matter involving the validity of a criminal conviction or sentence, this rule does not authorize an appellate court or the superior court, when acting as an intermediate appellate court, to allow
(1) the notice of appeals to be filed more than 60 days late; or
(2) a petition for review or petition for hearing to be filed more than 60 days late.
(SCO 439 effective November 15, 1980; amended by SCO 1238 effective July 15, 1996)
Note to SCO 1238: The limitation on the court's power to accept late appeals or petitions was added by ch. 79 ยง 21 SLA 1995. Section 7 of this order is adopted for the sole reason that the legislature has mandated the amendment.
