Rule 31.4. Consolidation of Appeals
Currentness
(a) Consolidation by Appellate Court Order. On motion, by stipulation, or on its own, an appellate court may order appeals or cross-appeals consolidated at any time:
(1) if those appeals or cross-appeals raise a common question of law or fact; and
(2) the court has given the parties an opportunity to object.
(b) Consolidation with the Appeal of a Post-Judgment Proceeding. Unless good cause exists not to do so, an appellate court must consolidate an appeal from a judgment or sentence with an appeal from a final decision on a Rule 24 motion or a petition for review from a final decision on a Rule 32 petition if the motion or petition was filed:
(1) before a notice of appeal is filed; or
(2) while an appeal is pending and the motion or petition was decided while the appeal is stayed.
