A. Appeals to the Court en banc may be taken by filing an original and two (2) copies of a Request for Review within ten (10) days from the date the order appealed from was filed with the Court as reflected by the date of the file stamp thereon. No party may file a Motion For New Trial, a Motion For Reconsideration or a Petition for Rehearing before the assigned trial judge. The Request for Review shall include:

B. No response to a Request for Review is Necessary. A motion to Dismiss an Appeal for lack of jurisdiction based upon the time lines of the appeal, may be filed by the non-appealing party. Appeals to the Court en banc shall be strictly on the record made before the trial court. No new evidence shall be allowed. The Request for Review shall be accompanied by a non-refundable filing fee in the sum of One Hundred Seventy-Five Dollars ($175.00).

C. A designation of record shall be filed by the appealing party and a copy submitted to the court reporter and all other parties in the case concurrently with or before filing a Request for Review in all actions which are appealed to the Court en banc. The cost of preparing the transcript shall be advanced immediately by the designating party. The transcript shall be prepared and sent to all parties to the appeal within forty-five (45) days from the date the designation of record is filed.

E. The presiding judge, or in the absence of the presiding judge, the judge who is the most senior in terms of service or designee, shall preside at oral argument.

F. Oral argument shall be limited to ten (10) minutes to each side unless the time is enlarged by leave of the Court. Any party failing to appear when the appeal is called for oral argument shall be deemed as having waived the right to argue the case and the appeal shall be considered as being submitted on the record. If a basis of the appeal involves medical evidence, other disputed questions of fact, or if there is controlling or significant appellate authority, three sets of the relevant documents, excerpts of the trial transcript, deposition testimony, or decisions shall be presented to the Court en banc at the time of oral argument and shall be exchanged with opposing parties prior to oral argument.

G. All proceedings of the Court en banc shall be recorded by a court reporter of the Court. Any party requesting a transcript of the proceedings shall bear the costs associated with its preparation. Any designation of the record for the Court en banc shall be governed by the applicable Rules of Appellate Procedure in civil cases as adopted by the Oklahoma Supreme Court. During the pendency of an appeal to the Court en banc, the trial court shall retain jurisdiction over any issue not affected by the eventual ruling of the appellate body. See, Waddle v. State Industrial Court, 1964 OK 169, 394 P.2d 511.
