The appellant designation is a list of documents, chosen by the appellant, from the official bankruptcy court record, upon which the bankruptcy judge relied in deciding the appealed order, judgment or decree.



The appellant designation is due 14 days after the filing of the notice of appeal. See Fed. R. Bankr. R. 8006. It must include the document number from the docket sheet for each designated document pursuant to the Notice of Guidelines Regarding Appeals. However, exhibits and transcripts that have not yet been filed may be listed on the designation without a document number. The statement of issues may be included in the same document as the appellant designation, as long as the appellant designation event was used for docketing.
