Fed. R. App. P. 17

(a) Agency to File; Time for Filing; Notice of Filing. The agency

must file the record with the circuit clerk within 40 days after

being served with a petition for review, unless the statute authorizing review provides otherwise, or within 40 days after it files an

application for enforcement unless the respondent fails to answer

or the court orders otherwise. The court may shorten or extend

the time to file the record. The clerk must notify all parties of the

date when the record is filed.

(b) Filing—What Constitutes.

(1) The agency must file:

(A) the original or a certified copy of the entire record

or parts designated by the parties; or

(B) a certified list adequately describing all documents,

transcripts of testimony, exhibits, and other material constituting the record, or describing those parts designated

by the parties.

20 Rule 18 FEDERAL RULES OF APPELLATE PROCEDURE

(2) The parties may stipulate in writing that no record or

certified list be filed. The date when the stipulation is filed

with the circuit clerk is treated as the date when the record

is filed.

(3) The agency must retain any portion of the record not

filed with the clerk. All parts of the record retained by the

agency are a part of the record on review for all purposes and,

if the court or a party so requests, must be sent to the court

regardless of any prior stipulation.
