I do apologize for being ignorant in legalese, even the simplest. Could you or someone explain what comment #223 means?

02/03/2009 LETTER from Appellee Federal Election Commission, received pursuant to Clerk's Order dated 1/28/2009 informing the Court that they intend to file a formal brief, unless the Court should grant the Commission's Motion for Summary Affirmance before its formal brief is due. Certificate of Service dated 02/02/2009. (CH)

A formal brief goes into a great deal of detail and can be quite lengthy. Summary Affirmation is more or less a synopsis. They are just letting the court know that if the court does not accept their concise form they intend to file the more complete form. Back at post 8, I think is an out line for the rules, you may want to download it. It is pdf.
