3d Cir. L.A.R. 35.4
Caution
As noted in FRAP 35, en banc hearing or rehearing of appeals is not favored. Counsel
have a duty to the court commensurate with that owed their clients to read with attention and
observe with restraint the required statement for rehearing en banc set forth in 3d Cir. L.A.R.
35.1. Counsel are reminded that in every case the duty of counsel is fully discharged without
filing a petition for rehearing en banc unless the case meets the rigorous requirements of FRAP
35 and 3d Cir. L.A.R. 35.1.

Committee Comments: New provision in 1995. This rule is modeled after U.S. Ct. of App.
5th Cir. Rule 35 (1991). The purpose of the rule is to emphasize
that the court does not favor requests for hearing or rehearing en
banc, and to discourage inappropriate requests from being made.
