KEVIN BARBER,

              Plaintiff and Appellant,

      v.                                                           ORDER

BRADFORD ACQUATIC GROUP, LLC,

              Defendant and Appellee.
                                     _________________

       This Court reviews briefs to ensure compliance with Rules 11 and 12 of the
Montana Rules of Appellate Procedure. After reviewing the Appellant’s opening brief
filed electronically on June 19, 2023, this Court has determined that the brief does not
comply with Rule 12 and must be supplemented as provided below.
           Pursuant to M. R. App. P. 12(1)(i), appellants must attach an appendix that
includes the relevant judgment, orders, findings of fact, conclusions of law, jury
instructions, rulings, or decisions from which the appeal is taken. Appellant’s appendix
does not contain the relevant documents. Accordingly, while the Court accepts filing of
Appellant’s opening brief, the Court requests Appellant electronically file the relevant
documents from which he appeals.
Therefore,
       IT IS ORDERED that within ten (10) days of the date of this Order the Appellant
shall electronically file with the Clerk of this Court the relevant judgment or orders from
which the appeal is taken, and that copies of the relevant judgment or orders be served on
all parties of record; and
       IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the times for any subsequent briefing contained
in M. R. App. P. 13 shall run from the date of filing of the relevant judgment or orders.
       The Clerk is directed to provide a true copy of this Order to the Appellant and to
all parties of record.
                                                                              Electronically signed by:
                                                                                   Dirk Sandefur
                                                                         Justice, Montana Supreme Court
                                                                                   June 21 2023
