INSTRUCTIONS This form is designed to serve as both the voucher for fees in appellate assigned cases and the case summary attorneys are required to submit to the Michigan Appellate Assigned Counsel System under section 4(6)(c)(ii) of the regulations governing that system. The form should be completed as follows: 1. The attorney, upon completing all work within the scope of the order of appointment (whether that order was for representation in the Court of Appeals or the Supreme Court), should fill out all applicable lines of section I. Apart from basic background information, section I primarily seeks information about the case not readily available from such other sources as appellate court docket entries. 2. The attorney should fill out the fee and expense information in section II completely, then sign and date the declaration. The attorney should leave sections III and IV blank. 3. The attorney should then provide the entire form, with all copies intact, to the trial judge who signed the order of appointment. Counsel may wish to photocopy the form before filing it in case the original is lost. 4. The assigning judge should review the case summary, indicate in section III the fees and expenses actually being approved, and sign and date the form. 5. The court should keep the white copy, return the pink copy to the attorney, and forward the yellow copy to: Michigan Appellate Assigned Counsel System 1375 S. Washington Suite 300 Lansing, MI 48913
