(The trial court caption is used on the notice of appeal. Subsequent documents shall bear the appropriate appellate court caption. Minnesota Statutes, section 632.14 provides that appeals from a final judgment of conviction of the crime of murder in the first degree are taken directly to the Supreme Court. Rule 29, subdivision 1 of the Rules of Criminal Procedure specifies the procedure for service and filing of the notice of appeal; subdivision 2 itemizes the contents of the notice of appeal; subdivision 3 defines the time for taking an appeal; and subdivision 4 cites other relevant procedures in first-degree murder appeals.)

(Amended effective for appeals taken on or after January 1, 1992.)
