D.C. Super. Ct. Civ. R. 46

Objecting to a Ruling or Order

activein force · 2017-05-01 – presentact-effective-date

A formal exception to a ruling or order is unnecessary. When the ruling or order is

requested or made, a party need only state the action that it wants the court to take or

objects to, along with the grounds for the request or objection. Failing to object does not

prejudice a party who had no opportunity to do so when the ruling or order was made.
