1. 1.080—FORMAT AND LOCATION OF COURT RULES  
 
Amended to clarify numbering requirements for Supplementary Local Rules 
(SLR). 
 
ACTION TAKEN 
No motion was made to change the committee’s preliminary 
recommendation of approval.  Accordingly, by committee convention, the 
October 24, 2025, preliminary recommendation became the committee’s 
final recommendation of approval. 
 
EXPLANATION 
This proposal, submitted by Rachel D. Trickett, UTCR Reporter, amends 
UTCR 1.080 to clarify and strengthen the numbering requirements for 
Supplemental Local Rules (SLRs).  The prior version of UTCR 1.080 
provided only general guidance and lacked the specificity needed for court 
staff and the UTCR Committee to effectively navigate existing SLRs, 
proposed new SLRs, and proposed amendments during the annual review 
required under UTCR 1.050(2).  The approved amendments are intended 
to ensure that UTCR 1.080 clearly serves its purpose by: 
• Maintaining consistency in SLR numbering; 
• Promoting the ability to correlate SLR to related UTCR; and 
• Avoiding confusion with UTCR of the same number. 
 
Relatedly, a nominal conforming change to UTCR 1.010(3)(b) updates the 
citation to UTCR 1.080 from UTCR 1.080(3) to 1.080(4). 
 
No public comments were received. 
 
AMENDMENT 
 
1.080 FORMAT AND LOCATION OF COURT RULES 
 
(1) All UTCR and SLR must include a table of contents.
