any party or amicus curiae in the Court of Criminal
Appeals, including replies, responses, amendments,
and supplements.
History
Notes and Comments Comment to 2019 change: This rule incorporates and expands former Rule 68.11 to require service on the State Prosecuting Attorney of all petitions for discretionary review and all substantive briefing in the Court of Criminal Appe als. In using the phrase “brief filed by any party or amicus curiae in the Court of Criminal Appeals,” the rule does not intend to require service on the State Prosecuting Attorney of petitions for a writ of mandamus (or responses) or applications for a writ of habeas corpus (or answers) and their accompanying memoranda. However, if the Court of Criminal Appeals has filed and set a mandamus petition or habeas corpus application, the rule does require service on the State Prosecuting Attorney of the briefs filed in the case.
