over a case that is pending when the court's term
expires.
History
Notes and Comments Comment to 1997 change: This is a new rule except the provisions of former Rule 234 are incorporated in subdivision 19.4. Comment to 2002 change: Subdivision 19.1 is amended to clarify that a motion for en banc reconsideration extends the court of appeals' plenary power in the same manner as a motion for rehearing addressed to the panel of justices who rendered the judgment or under consideration. Comment to 2008 change: Subdivision 19.1 is changed, consistent with other changes in the rules, to specifically address a motion for en banc reconsideration and treat it as having the effect of a motion for rehearing.
