(b) Citation. An unreported opinion of either Court may be cited in either Court for any purpose other than as precedent within the rule of stare decisis or as persuasive authority.

A party who cites an unreported opinion shall attach a copy of it to the pleading, brief, or paper in which it is cited.
Committee note: A request that an unreported opinion be designated for reporting is governed by Rule 8-605.1 (b).
