The United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit recently adopted amendments to its Local Appellate Rules, creating a new L.A.R. 26.1 and modifying L.A.R. Misc. 113.3(c).  The amended rules now create a uniform 5:00 p.m. ET filing deadline (for both electronic and paper filings).  The new rules are effective July 1, 2023, with a grace period until December 31, 2023 for papers mistakenly filed after 5:00 p.m. ET.

The new deadline applies to all documents filed after the initiation of a proceeding in the court of appeals, but does not apply to documents initiating an appeal or other proceeding in the court of appeals.
