submitted on brief.
State v. Banerjee
No. 20220266
Per Curiam.
[¶1] Joyanta Banerjee appeals from two orders denying his motions for a new
trial.
[¶2] Under N.D.R.App.P. 28(b), an appellant’s brief must contain: a table of
contents; a statement regarding jurisdiction; a statement of the issues
presented for review; a statement of the case indicating the nature of the case;
a statement of the facts relevant to the issues, and a legally supported
argument regarding the appellant’s issues. We discussed the importance of
these requirements in State v. Noack,
.
Without the content required by N.D.R.App.P. 28(b), we will decline to review
the appellant’s alleged errors.
[¶3] Although Banerjee’s brief contains headings for a statement of facts, a
statement of the case, and law and argument, the lack of content following the
headings prevents us from providing meaningful or effective appellate review.
Therefore, under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(8) we summarily affirm the district
court’s orders denying Banerjee’s motions for a new trial.
