Alaska R. App. P. 604

(a) Appeals from District Court.

(1) Record on Appeal.

(A) The record on appeal consists of the entire district

court file, including the original papers and exhibits filed in the

district court and the record of proceedings before the district

court.

(B) The record of proceedings before the district court

will include electronic recordings rather than transcripts unless

the superior court orders the submission of transcripts. In the

absence of an agreement between the parties or an order of the

court to the contrary, all reasonable costs incurred in

connection with preparing a transcript will be borne by the

appellant.

(C) Within 40 days after filing of the notice of appeal, the

clerk of the superior court shall assemble the record and

prepare and distribute notice of the due date for appellant’s

brief. The papers in the record need not be numbered and a

table of contents need not be prepared.

(2) Power of Court to Correct or Modify Record of

District Court. If any differences arise as to whether the record

on appeal truly discloses what occurred in the district court, the

difference must be submitted to and settled by the superior

court and the record made to conform to it. If anything material

to either party is omitted from the record on appeal by error or

accident or is misstated therein, the parties by stipulation, the

district court, or the superior court, on motion or of its own

initiative, may direct that the omission or misstatement be

corrected.

(3) Return of Record. Unless the court otherwise orders,

the clerk shall return the original record to the district court

upon return of jurisdiction as provided by Rule 507(e)(1).

(b) Appeals from Administrative Agencies.

(1) Record on Appeal.

(A) The record on appeal consists of the original papers

and exhibits filed with the administrative agency, and a typed

transcript of the record of proceedings before the agency. In an

appeal from the revocation of a driver’s license by the Division

of Motor Vehicles or from a prisoner disciplinary decision of

the Department of Corrections, the record of proceedings will

include electronic recordings rather than transcripts unless

otherwise ordered by the court.

(B) Appellate Rule 210 shall apply except that:

(i) Appellate Rule 210(b)(1) and (2) shall not apply.

(ii) The original transcript shall be filed with the

administrative agency. The agency shall forward the transcript

to the clerk of the superior court within 40 days after service of

the notice for preparation of the record.

(iii) The administrative agency shall number the pages of

the agency file consecutively throughout all volumes. The

agency shall forward a copy of the numbered file to the clerk

of the superior court with the transcript. Physical exhibits will

be retained by the agency unless specifically requested by the

court. As used in this rule, “physical exhibits” includes

exhibits other than documents or photographs, and also

includes documents or photographs of unusually large size or

unusual bulk or weight.

(iv) In the absence of an agreement between the parties or

an order of the court to the contrary, all reasonable costs

incurred in connection with preparing the transcript and the

court’s copy of the agency file shall be borne by the appellant.

The preparing agency may require advance payment of the

costs as reasonably estimated by the agency.

(v) Upon receipt of the transcript and a copy of the

agency file, the clerk of the superior court shall prepare and

distribute notice of the due date for appellant’s brief.

(2) Return of Record. Unless the court otherwise orders,

the clerk shall return all original papers and physical exhibits

to the administrative agency upon return of jurisdiction as

provided by Rule 507(e)(2).
