HOW TO CREATE AN APPEAL BOOK:

The video below was created from two seminars presented in September of 2007 by Ms. Annette Boucher, the former Registrar of the Nova Scotia Court of Appeal.

Some of the elements of the Appeal Book have been recreated as files and/or still photographs and are accessible by clicking on the appropriate links below the video window..

On most computers, the video should start automatically as soon as you call up this page. If it does not, click on the arrow in the middle of the screen or the one at the bottom left of the screen.
To pause and resume viewing, click on the " II " icon at the bottom left of the video screen.
