Wislawjournal.com reports: The new rule requiring electronic filing of appellate briefs is now in effect, and practitioners are feeling their way through the process with some trepidation.   Some appellate attorneys have experience in federal court, where e-filing is mandated, and they say the state system offers little benefit to litigants.   ?It?s progress for the court, but not an aid to the litigants,? said Marla J. Stephens, an attorney in the State Public Defender?s Office Appellate Division. ?That?s not an opinion. It?s simply a factual statement.?   Litigants leery of appellate court e-filing
