The clerk of the district court shall have 15 days from the date of this order to transmit to the clerk of this court a supplemental record on appeal. The supplemental record must include certified copies of the following: (1) all documentary evidence or exhibits admitted during the guilt or penalty phases of appellant's trial or otherwise filed in the district court, (2) transcripts of the February 24, and 27, 2003 hearings on appellant's motion to suppress statements, and (3) a transcript of the spoken language from the videotapes of appellant's confession that were played for the jury during appellant's trial.

|
| 01/07/2004 | Order/Procedural | Filed Order. Order to Supplement Record on Appeal. Because the documents sent by the clerk did not include the documentary evidence and exhibits from the guilt phase, the district court clerk shall have 5 days from the date of this order to certify and transmit the documentary evidence and exhibits from the guilt phase of appellant's trial. Additionally, because it appears that certified copies of exhibits 70 and 71 cannot be transmitted to this court, the district court clerk shall, within 5 days from the date of this order, certify and transmit the originals of exhibits 70 and 71. Although the district court clerk states that the transcripts for exhibits 70 and 71 are included in volume 7 of the record on appeal, we are unable to locate these transcripts in the record on appeal filed with this court. Accordingly, the district court clerk shall have 5 days from the date of this order to resubmit certified copies of the transcripts for exhibits 70 and 71. Finally, because it appears that additional time is necessary to complete and transmit the transcripts for the February 24, and 27, 2003, hearings, we grant the clerk's request for an extension of time. The district court clerk shall have 20 days from the date of this order to certify and transmit certified copies of the transcripts for the February 24, and 27, 2003, hearings. | | 04-00299
