History

[Amended 9-28-87, eff. 10-1-87.] Comment It is essential to the effective operation of the Unified Judicial System to have rules of judicial administration to assist in the orderly conduct of the day-today affairs of the courts. In order to effectuate this orderly administration, it is necessary to have a method to review existing rules to determine the necessity of making modifications thereto or of implementing new rules. This Rule replaces former Rule 31.
