Rule 6.08: Reference Within Brief

Section Appellate Practice
Unless the context particularly requires a distinction between parties as appellant or appellee, parties normally should be referred to in the body of a brief by their status in the district court, e.g., plaintiff, defendant, etc., or by name. Citation of a court decision must be by the official citation followed by any generally recognized reporter system citation.
