           IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF MONTANA
                                                                                        Case Number: DA 22-0729

JAMIE NORRIS,

             Plaintiff and Appellant,

      v.
                                                                   ORDER
RICK L. OLSEN d/b/a A&O SHEET METAL,

             Defendant, Appellee and
             Cross-Appellant.
                                    _________________

       This Court reviews briefs to ensure compliance with Rules 11 and 12 of the
Montana Rules of Appellate Procedure. After reviewing the Appellee’s answer and
cross-appeal 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) and 12(4), cross-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.         Appellee’s
appendix did not contain the relevant documents. Accordingly, while the Court accepts
filing of Appellee’s answer and cross-appeal brief, the Court requests Appellee
electronically file the relevant document from which he appeals.
Therefore,
       IT IS ORDERED that within ten (10) days of the date of this Order, the Appellee
shall electronically file with the Clerk of this Court the relevant judgment or order from
which the appeal is taken, and that copies of the relevant judgment or order 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 judgement or order.
       The Clerk is directed to provide a true copy of this Order to the Appellee and to all
parties of record.                                                            Electronically signed by:
                                                                                   Dirk Sandefur
                                                                         Justice, Montana Supreme Court
                                                                                   June 21 2023
